Re: 204 Ruger, which factory rifle?
Here's a factory rifle for you! I call him Stumpy, he has a 15" threaded barrel and a muzzle break that brings the OAL to 17" https://i.postimg.cc/15H598f9/204-Ruger-Stumpy-II.jpg I only wish the barrel were thinner as that small deficit created by the 20 caliber bore leaves a lot of weight.

thanks, Bill K
It is my most accurate setup!
I can literally hit a dime at 100 yds.
I need to shoot at a variety of ranges that I can get a feel of it's trajectory
I look forward to that learning curve

Re: 6x45mm twist rate
Thanks, Bill
I appreciate your compliments
I'm presently embroiled in a few Encore forearms
Here's one on a 357/44 Bain & Davis (still needs some TLC)

Re: 6x45mm twist rate
Rick in OR I rec'd the 14" SSK Bbl with the front 9" turned down to .55" and wanted to use the barrel with a forearm designed to enclose the barrel's deficit. As a single shot the heat buildup within the forearm is minimal. It is free-floated internally and has no contact to the wood ...

Re: .20 vartarg
I shoot contenders exclusively so I can't really speak to the 'heating up of barrels' but I have quite a range of small bore chambers. They range from 17HMR, .204 Ruger, .222 Rem, .223 Rem, and .222 Rem Mag Imp all rifle barrels and the one that I have the highest confidence in to drill a fly at 100...
