    Where to measure barrel length?

    So my .223 has an 18 1/2" barrel if I measure from the muzzle to where the barrel fits flush with the receiver (wouldn't include the chamber).

    However, if I measure it from the muzzle to the bolt face it is 20".

    Which is the correct measurement to use?
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.
