    What size steel tubing is used for 1/4" guns? Not too sloppy.

    This is the stuff you want for 1/4" rounds. It's 3/8 OD, pretty tight tolerance, and can be bent without needing cerrobend or anything as long as you've got a decent tubing bender. The 5/16" OD stuff is good for 7/32" rounds, and the 1/4" OD stuff is good for .177" bb rounds. I have not tested anything for 3/16" rounds, since I don't have anything that uses them.
