    Introduced in 1963, the .221 Remington Fireball was first chambered in the Remington XP-100T, and is an obvious choice to join the list of distinguished, limited edition Model 700 Classic chamberings. Long a favorite of serious target shooters and varmint hunters, this shortened version of the .222 Remington delivers high-velocity accuracy and quick expansion for long-range targets and small game.The Model 700 Classic features the elegance of a straight comb, classic style stock of American walnut with a low-gloss, satin finish and crisp-cut checkering. The clean, carbon steel barrel has a polished blue finish and is 24 inches in length with a twist rate of one turn in 14-inches. Matched with the new Premierr Varmint .221 Remington Fireball, 50-grain V-MaxT offering, the Model 700 Classic delivers unmatched accuracy in a beautiful collector's series rifle.Dating back to 1981, the impressive list of one-year limited edition Model 700 Classics has included many of the truly great centerfire chamberings. Adding to the uniqueness of this Classic offering is the distinction of being the first production rifle chambered in .221 Remington Fireball. The 22nd annual edition of the Model 700 Classic is available for one year only at a suggested retail price of $656
