I had no issues killing things with 22-250 and 223 rifles variously twisted 1-12 or 1-14. Got great accuracy and things inside of 350 yards seemed to die with a reasonable amount of suddenness. These rifles also handled the cheap soft point bullets without slinging them apart like a 1-7 twist 223 will sometimes. Here in Texas I so seldom have to shoot past 200 yards a 1-14 twist would work OK but in my current inventory of .224 barrels the slowest twist I have is 1-9 and it does a lot very well.
