Opinions Please: The absolute best 20 cal barrel for a Savage

[Chief 101]

You made a good choice...but the 204 Ruger really turns on above 3500fps so I stick with 32gr and 40 gr pills. Goodluck, you will get a great barrel...

I just purchased a Green Mountain blank in 20 cal. it is straight 25" long and will be a 20 practical when done. Has anyone else used them for a 20 cal build?

Mucho Gracias...

fine info, however you all failed...nobody offered to buy me one just like theirs to prove the point. moving along here, the decision has been made, check was put in the mail an hour ago and this is what I ended up ordering.

Pac-Nor 26", Target weight contour ( 1.117 to .850), 1:8.5 twist to stabilize the heavier 49 to 69 grain bullets.
Thanks for all the input...class act the folks who lurk on this site and graciously share experiences, good, bad and in between.

Camp fire is all ways lit, coffee is all ways on and some very nice Tequila is close buy...stop in anytime gentlemen...just don't kick my dog or disrespect my wife.

good luck shooting 69 gr bullets in a 8.5 twist 20 cal barrel. Guess you went with a 22 cal barrel

Had a 20 Practical barrel from CBI a little while back.

Amazingly accurate, easy to load, easy to tune.

Glad I sold it, it made me think I'm a better shot than I am.
