Well you know it takes a few thousand shots to break in a seal, I thought maybe you had the gun taken apart and was working on it? so your not gonna know really what kinda fit your gonna have untill you can get in the tube. All seal's vary in size from run to run, to get an idea of the seal size I use a telescoping gage to measure the inside of the tube and use a dialcaliper to measure that and remember the seal will swell up after its on the piston so you kinda wanna measure the old seal while it on the piston and off this will give you a pretty good idea of what seal size you need.
