	I am curious about this ctg because I recently ran into a fellow using a Ballard chambered for this round. Any comments?

	Stevens used 1 in 14, my rebore by? is 1 in 14. 1 in 12 is used for heavier bullets. Anyone use a faster twist than 1 in 12?

	A 14" does just fine with 140 grain bullets, not good at all with the heavy bullets intended for a 7 mm.
