New Twist on an old Luger?

Most 7.62mm/.308 rifle barrels are between 1:10 and 1:12 twist, so you should have seen at least half a turn looking down this barrel you report. The exception is my Steyr SSG, which has a 1:9 barrel for the heavier 190 - 200 gr bullets. My Krico 640S Scharfschutzengewehr has a 1:10 barrel, which is considered a medium twist over here in not so sunny UK. Still, your barrel sounds very odd 0 more like a black powder shooting barrel - now there's a thought!
