You have to measure carefully if you're going to order the custom angle bored bushing. Use a real mic, not the cheap digital calipers. I order the .701 OD because that was a perfect fit for the slide. The bushing fit the slide perfectly. The inner diameter that fits the barrel was also perfectly bored. I would note that my barrel would not lock/unlock because the fit was so tight, but using a marking pen it's easy to find the area that is binding. A few strokes with some abrasive paper was all that was required to achieve perfect operation. Barrel lockup at the muzzle is now perfect with no play and no springing. The angle bore is magic.
