The 20 Pup is a great little case, I got interested after building Blakes 17 Lil Nasty. I had Eddie chamber a couple of barrels. Back then I had head space ga in full length, , .100, .125, 150 and 175 short in 30* shoulders. At the time the FL, .100 and .125 was nearly the same performance. The .150 and .175 short shot about the same at 300 yds but I thought the .150 had the edge. Velocity was close to the 204 Ruger. As usual I decided to try the 40* versions. That's what I settled on, the .150 short 40* shoulder version. Michael might remember shooting it at one of our early small caliber shoots. It was built on his old Farley/ Tracker stock. I think the 20 Pup is a better PD gun than Squirrel gun, just based off the volume of shooting you do at squirrels. Barrel heat and life also figures into it. The 20 Pup is great, you'll enjoy it for what ever you use it on.
