I'd approach a 20" barrel exactly the way I would one that was 22" or 24" or 26"
Accuracy trumps.
Yup. I wouldn’t expect RL26 to be the scnizzle but any 4350 variation would be a good place to start and likely end. I would avoid most heavily coated ball-type powders if you don’t want a flare gun effect. (Perhaps Hunter or Big Game would be an exception. I dunno.???)
