Did Savage ever refer to it as a 20/26?
Not sure if it ever appeared in print, somebody else could answer that, but it was definately a different animal with the Lyman 54, no dovetail for rear sight cut in barrel and sling swivel studs. I think there was more wood in the stock as well. They felt heavier to me than the early model 20's which probably helped tame the recoil some especially in the 300
