Probably you need to create a before insert trigger on your custom object and use a code similar to this: 
Trigger someTrigger on CstmObject__c (before insert) {
	List<User> usersToAssign = [SELECT Id FROM User WHERE ....];
	List<CstmObject__c> insertRecords = Trigger.new;
	Decimal groupSize = Math.ceil( Decimal.valueOf(insertRecords.size()) / Decimal.valueOf(usersToAssign.size()) ); //20
	Integer counter = 0;
	Integer userIndex = 0;

	for (CstmObject__c rec : insertRecords) {
		userIndex = Integer.valueOf( Math.ceil( Decimal.valueOf(counter) / groupSize ) ) - 1;
		rec.UserId__c = usersToAssign[userIndex];
		counter++;
	}
}
