Just pull the second slide and measure the inside diameter of the slide tube-a dial caliper is the right tool to use for this purpose. Thus, the inside diameter of the second slide tuba of a Miraphone 186-4U is 0.770 inch. Actually, just now mine seems to measure about 0.765, but that's close enough; there's probably .005 worth of gunk in it.

Now, what bore size has to do with anything is a completely different kettle of fish...
