DrDeath: I have one of these Remington 700 Classics in caliber 223 Remington (as well as two of these in caliber 222 Remington along with several other calibers) and my 223 shoots extremely well. I use the wonderful 50 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip bullets to attain excellent accuracy - I hope that helps because I have NO idea what twist rate the barrel is. I did look in my 2,019 Remington "MSRP" "SPEC BOOK" and it shows their offering in the 700 SPS (cheap version of the Classic 700 Sporter?) is indeed 1 in 12" twist as are most all offerings in the 700 Varmint line - the lone exception I could find was the Remington 700 VTR (Varmint Tactical Rifle) which comes with a 1 in 9" twist rate. Again hope this helps. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

Were lefthand versions of the Classic ever offered?
sorry for the hijack, just curious.

Yes, to my knowledge outside of any special releases, all Rem 700 are 1:12 twist for 223.

Every Remington Classic I’ve owned has been a very accurate rifle. And I’ve owned a bunch of them.

Great rifles. Other than the wart (easy fix), Remington got it right with these rifles.
I've had one for several years and had opportunity to be around 2-3 more from 2K (223 versions). All have been very accurate for Remington stock.
