So I have been crusing the forums and can't come up with anything concrete. So I'll just ask. I recently purchased a Remington 350 off of a fellow CGNer. These rifles apparently have a 1:16 rate of twist. I would prefer to run 225 A Frames and I would like to know if i can expect any sort of accuracy out of them with that slow of twist and if I can expect any clearance issues with the Model Seven magazine?
350 RM rate of twist

You'll be fine. The Remington .35 Whelen came with the same twist and stabilize 250gr bullets easily. You'll have no issues especially with a 225gr bullet. You should also be fine in the short action, you may have to seat above the cannelure but that's no big deal.
The 350 shoots 225 like a dream, that's all I use in mine and it groups sub moa when I'm having a good day. Also as noted my Rem 700 35 Whelen has the same twist and shoots 250s well under moa so do not worry about the twist, just load 'er up and go kill sh!t with it !!!!
