  Mister Post...
  For future use, you can take a cleaning rod with a swivel handel, and mark it so you can tell when it has made one complete revolution, while you measure the distance with a tape measure that it took to make that one complete revolution. Factory barrels twist rates are not always as quoted, and this is a easy way to determine the exact twist rate for any given barrel.......
  
  Gun control is hitting what your aiming at.
