Using Mesa hardware on Sierra Tubes

kenlholley · Oct 21, 2026

Hello.
I purchased some 250th anniversary blanks made with Sierra tubes. My question is, Can I use Mesa hardware on these blanks? The tube diameter is the same, but is the length the same?

According to the Bushing and Tubes app the Sierra tube length is 2.21 and depending on which Mesa the length can be 2.25 or 3.20.

Good idea to have calipers to measure. I don't think that 0.04 would matter that much.

And Gatsby, which is similar, is 2.22.

Thanks.
I didn't think the .04 " would make that much of a difference. I'll try one and see how it goes.
