22 WMR twist rate for 50-grain bullets

I'm building a rifle for a client who wants to shoot 22 WMR loads with 50-grain bullets and am concerned that the standard twist rate of 16" may be too slow. Any comments from those who have experience with 22 WMR 50-grain ammo in a 14" or 16" twist barrel would be appreciated.
