Well, my Yamaha 621 has a .689 bore and a bell only an inch larger, but it is a MUCH bigger horn. Bore and bell don't tell the whole story.

Had I played the horn expecting a big euphonium rather than a small tuba, my impressions would likely have been different.

I wonder what a real F tuba mouthpiece would sound like in that horn, like maybe whatever the new number is for a PT-9, properly shaved, of course.
