22-250 twist rate

If you were shooting factory ammo which which rate of twist would you choose for 22-250 26" barrel.  I've noticed the 50 -55 gr makes up most the available cartridges.

For factory Encore and Contender barrels, your choice is 1:12.  I get great accuracy on T/C 1:12 twist barrels using 70 grain Semi-Spitzers even in a 222.  This is my bullet of choice for my 22-250.
