I don't think anyone mentioned the money that is already in the pot when it comes back to the original raiser. This changes the math a little.
If he raises 4xBB and you reraise to 20xBB, his choice is whether to call 16xBB to win 104xBB (assuming full stack implied odds). So he is getting 6.5-to-1 before the flop.
As another example, if he raises 8xBB and you reraise to 20xBB, his choice is whether to call 12xBB to win 108xBB. So he is getting 9-to-1 before the flop.
So you need to increase the amount you reraise based on the size of his original raise.
