7mm-08 Twist rate.

I bought an Axis barrel in 7mm-08 Rem, 20" and I'm trying to verify the twist rate. I've tried the cleaning rod thing, but I'm getting all different numbers. What years if any did they make the Axis with the 11 1/2 twist rate ? Does anyone know the slow twist years ?

They never made an axis with that twist rate only some Stevens 200 and some 10s and 11s and I am not even sure about the 20" barrel 22" is the shortest I have ever seen.

I assumed it was a barrel from a youth model.

I forgot about the youth or lady versions, today they are 9.25, they 11.5 was last made in any configuration, was at least 5 years ago.
