Picked up a replacement '03 barrel before checking here!

I've got one and it's fine, do the drill bit thing and see rather than speculate.

What length drill bit did you use?

What length drill bit

I made a straightness gauge for this sort of thing. Then it comes out at exactly the right size and about four inch minimum. I tapped a hole for a cleaning rod too, for using it to do straightening jobs, not just dropping through. A drill bit isn't quite right, no matter which numbered size you use...
