The manufacturer's page provides the same information: "Broach cut rifled in 1:16LH twist for improved accuracy, and the ability to shoot lead (non-jacketed) projectiles." It is possible that their own page is incorrect, however we have to go by what the manufacturer provides, so you would have to contact them directly to verify.
