Is an 11 VT and Axis or a 110?

I bought a 11 VT in .22-250 1:12 twist from Dick's Sporting goods several years ago, thinking it was a 110 series.
But when I found that it had the same mag as an Axis, I thought it might have been an Axis.
Do any of our Axis owners have any idea if the mag type makes it an Axis?

I have since changed the stock to an Oryx Chassis so it now has an AICS mag, which is a great improvement.
The stiffer, heavier chassis has improved the accuracy by over 30% with the same bullets.
 
Savage has started using the Axis type magazine on the 110 series.

On the 110 series, there is the rear baffle in front of the bolt handle(Item 54 on the schematic). The rear baffle's function is primary extraction. On the Axis, there's no rear baffle. The primary extraction is built into the bolt handle.

So, does your rifle have a rear baffle? (I'm betting yes)
