Richard is spot on with those readings. 60psi would be 34 degree evap temp and 250 psi around 118 degree cond.
I agree the pressures are too low indicating not enough gas. If you charge to 60 psi suction and your high side goes up towards 300 then your cap tubes are suspect. 300 is too high, watch your compressor current too. I don't recall your ambient temperature but it does play a part in these readings.
If you have a leak it is most likely around an oily area.
