1/7 twist is fine for a 20" barrel, you can stabilize the heaviest bullets in .224 with it. I have heard stories about really lightweight bullets shedding the jacket at these high RPMs, but I shoot 55 grain bullets out of mine @ 3200 fps all the time without problem, mathematically this works out to well over 300,000 rpm (at the muzzle).
