Re: 20" barrel blank??
a good share of the cost of a barrel is the labor and equipment costs, setup time, etc. It would most likely be a PITA for the barrel maker and would be no significant cost saveings. Ask and see what you find out.
I've got a good share of 8" stubs laying around the shop also, but they do make dandy stock for thread caps.
AR type barrels are made shorter, but many are ran at a time in the same setup.

I two used barrels but will work great for someone who wants to shorter barrel version in 6.5 One is in 1-9 1.160 breech end and the other is 1.150 which would be good for a savage the 1st barrel would finish out nice at 22 inches and the 2nd one at around 25 inches. Let me know if you are interested. Both barrels are kiegers.

If you can deal with a 17" maximum finished length, McGowen will delivery them for just under $120 - sold as a "pistol" barrel.
