MJ is correct. The other option is to fill a 305 block, but that wouldn't be my first choice. I am not a big fan of a sleeved block, either. If I were building a new piece my first choice is a small bore bow-tie and my second choice would be the dart 305. My reasoning is the bow-tie has a thicker cyl. wall than the dart block.
