What is the best diameter?

Ive heard a lot of things, from a lot of different people, but there doesnt seem to be any real consistency in what the best diameter for an inner barrel to be is. Ive been told 6.01 is the way to go, and Ive also heard that 6.07 is the one thats best for snipers. What is true, and what do YOU use? I personally have a 6.01 and have about a 2 inch grouping at 110 feet (after which it declines rather rapidly).

And rather than just saying the the best diameter, a little explanation as to WHY would be nice ;)

I agree... I've had better groupings at long ranges with 6.03 barrels but better groupings at close range with 6.01. That's why I mostly use PDI 6.01 in the race pistols I've build and 6.03 on my rifles...

Cheese Man I haven't seen such grouping at long range from an Airsoft gun to be honest but I've never used steel bbs.
