Just sitting here on my day off and pondering ideas. Anyone care to guess what a 20 Creedmoor might be capable of other than torching barrels? Lol
 
Haha I have one of those what if’s I would like to see. I would love to see a 6.5 Blackout in a bolt action, just a little nice to shoot varmint rifle.

Can probably get an idea on that from 6.5 TCU data? That'd be a sweetheart, but for varmints I'd opt for the 6x45 or 6 TCU for the better selection of varmint bullets. I'd venture that the pistol data for 6.5 TCU would compensate for the shorter. 221 fireball case out of a longer barrel.
 
Way overbore. I have a 22 creedmoor and it’s only useful for the heavy .224 projectiles. I’m running 95s in mine. You’d likely not be able to keep .204s together at the speeds you would achieve.
