I Bought a New Rifle Barrel

Some years ago I bough 3 Stevens Model 200 bolt action rifles in 270 Win for $180 apiece from Academy. A few years later I converted one of them to 221 Fireball. The Stevens is basically a no frills Savage w/o the Accu-Trigger. It was discontinued when Savage came out w/ the Axis. The gun was to be used by guests that went w/ me on prairie dog hunts. The gun turned out well and has been used by 4 different hunters on 5 hunts. On these same hunts, I developed a lot of respect for the 204 Ruger after watching some friends hunt w/ theirs. I decided to convert my last Stevens to a 20 caliber rifle. I help my friends load for their 204's. I've been disappointed w/ the quality/availability of 204 Ruger brass. I don't want to spend time fire forming or have to buy special dies so the 20 Tactical is out. Consequently, I settled on the 20 Practical. The 20 Practical uses 223 Rem brass that's been necked down to 20 caliber. Minor, inexpensive, one time modifications are made to the 223 Rem handloading dies to properly reduce the neck. Friday, I ordered a 20 Practical Shilen rifle barrel, custom recoil lug and custom barrel nut from Northland Shooters Supply. The barrel will be 24" long and have a twist rate for 32-40 grain bullets. Now I need to get my handloading supplies ready while waiting on the barrel so I might can take it on a hunt this summer. I'm going to use Lapua brass and 32 gr bullets.
