Congratulations on the 270.

I have a question about your 303 barrel. What diameter did you get? When Ruger offered the limited run of 303 No 1s, I was going to buy one until I found out they were .314s. Ugh! Although that was the correct diameter, try and find bullets. I ha been making 0 3135" 200 grain bullets, but it was too much hassle making different weights with only one set of bullet dies. That's why I went with the 30-303. There are bullets everywhere.

Safe Shooting!
