Green Mountain 10/22 MAGNUM BARREL - Closeout

Green Mountain's web site has the 17 inch blue and stainless Ruger 10-22 MAGNUM barrels on a close out special for $74 blued and $84 stainless. Anyone used/have one of these on the 10/22 Mag Ruger?? I'm sure the 20" is the big seller - does the 3" make that big a difference (I'm sure it will be louder) in accuracy? I'm thinking about ordering one.

My brother says for the money GM barrels are probably some of the best 10/22 barrels. I don't doubt it as they are very attractively priced and many people have shown them to shoot very well and have the targets to prove it.
