1. A magnetic tape cartridge comprising:
a magnetic tape; and
a storage medium in which information on the magnetic tape, which includes specification information of the magnetic tape, is stored,
wherein the magnetic tape has a recording surface,
angle adjustment information is stored in the storage medium, the angle adjustment information including a table that associates a plurality of the specification information with a plurality of reference skew angle information that serves as a plurality candidates for a reference skew angle of the magnetic tape before data is recorded in a data band of the magnetic tape, and
an angle at which a magnetic head configured to record data on the recording surface is inclined with respect to the recording surface is adjusted by deriving, using the table, the reference skew angle corresponding to the specification information of the magnetic tape.
