I'm going to make an RSCB clip but would like to know a few things, before I buy materials.

1. What size brass fits best into a 1/2 inch CPVC "T joint"?
2. What size brass fits 1/2 inch stefans (menards foam) loosely?

Use 1/2inch copper to fit the cpvc joint, but i think 17/32 brass would fit the stefans nicely.

If you are going to a store to buy the brass, or any barrel material, I always bring a few darts to test their fit. 9/16 or 17/32 should work. I personally made an angel breech with 9/16, but found a different supply of foam and put a piece of 17/32 down the org. barrel to get a tighter fit.

Don't use brass. Use 1/2 inch copper to make the clip, this will fit the darts loosely and fit in the t-coupler. Use
1/2 CPVC for the barrel. CPVC will give you a tight dart/barrel fit, which you want when using a RSCB.

Maybe I did mine wrong, but my RSCB is just a piece of PVC with a cap on one end a PVC "T" on the other. with a CPVC elbow in the bottom a small piece of PVC (about an inch and a half) with 13 in piece of CPVC barrel shoved into it .
