better for the G2 action?

I seem to recall that the 303 British round is tapered and would put a great amount of case head thrust on the action. I want to say Elwood Epps of Canada did something on "improving" the 303 by making the case walls more straight. To me, there would be less pressure on the case head.

Just something to think about.
