Twist rate in 870 Express

I am wondering what the rifling twist rate is in an 870 express deer barrel. If any one would have any info I would appreciate it. Thanks!!

Is that enough twist to be accurate? The Tarhunt website claims you need 1 in 28".

I HAVE MOSSBERGS, REMINGTONS, AND ITHACAS ALL WITH A 1 IN 34" TWIST, AND YES ITS GOOD ENOUGH. TRY DIFFERENT SLUGS, BUT I FIND THAT THE "LIGHTFIELD" SLUGS WORK GREAT WITH ALL MY SLUG GUNS!!!
