Noveske AR15 Barrel question?

[338LM_Sniper]

I just picked up a Noveske 20" barrel Thunder Ranch upper. This upper has the 20" SS barrel and has the markings starting with the Noveske Logo, 5.56 8T3L on it. Now I believe this means its a 1x8 Twist rate with 3 lands correct? Now is this barrel an Improved Polygonal barrel? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for your input......

Throw a bore scope in it and look?

I don't have one but I will call Noveske tomorrow morning.

You should be able to tell land number and if it's polygonal just by looking through it.

Spoke with Noveske Tech Support today. The barrel has Improved Polygonal Rifling and the Mod-0 Chamber. 1x8 twist with 3 lands and grooves. Should be really accurate with all ammo weights he told me. Looking forward to shooting it real soon.
