Only one I know of for sure is Savage in their model 12 LRPV left port model. This is a single shot rifle.
Take care,Stan

Tikka T3 has a 1-8 twist. Other than the Savage, a 1-7 is probably a custom proposition.

Savage also does (did?) A 1-7" twist Varninter Low Profile.

Cooper also does 1:7 twist on their M21 phoenix.
I've actually asked them before in several emails what twist they could do. I think the fastest they can put on is a 1:6.5

Since were talking semi-custom production guns, hs precision could probably get you into a 1-7" bolt gun.

The Cooper is a single shot though, right?

Cooper has a repeater action but the 223 is most likely a singleshot. Your best bet is custom for the 1x7 flavor

Re: who makes a 223 bolt rifle with a 1 in 7 twist
Buy a custom action with the 700 footprint, whatever flavor of stock you like, and put a 1:7 on.
Otherwise, if you need to go the repeater route, you're limited to a ar15 upper with a 1:7 twist barrel (fairly common), for now.
Unfortunate this is a go big, or go home, moment

Re: who makes a 223 bolt rifle with a 1 in 7 twist
A 1 in 8 will stabilize 80 grainers nicely in a 20" tube. A longer barrel that affords higher MV will have even less problems.
Not sure why a 1 in 7 is so necessary......

I think at this point your only option is to re-barrel.

Call Savage Custom Shop the gal in charge can tell you but they should be able to thread on a 1/7 twist onto one of the tactical models for a slight charge. I have a friend locally here that wanted a custom 308 barrel length and they hooked him up. Or you can go totally custom.

I ordered a 1-7 twist Pac nor Rem nut barrel and installed it on a friends Remington( it has a barrel nut just like a Savage). It was fairly reasonable, went on real easy and shoots great. I would definately do it again.
