Does anyone have the dimensions of the Chipco 43mm chip racks and the Bud Jones 43mm chip racks? I have about 1000 Royals and some Chipco racks, but some colors are pretty snug. The apache web site says that the Bud Jones racks are a "better fit." Can I get some independent confirmation of this before I buy a dozen or so of the Bud Jones racks?
 
I found that after cleaning and oiling the Royals (and the racks) that the chips fit into the Chipco racks a bit better than pre-cleaning/oiling. Some colors are definitely a bit more snug than others, and some racks seem to have a bit of minor width variations (a barrel will fit into one slot easily, but same barrel is super tight in a different slot in the same rack). Presumably after a bit of play the chips will fit better.

Can't give you any feedback on the BJ racks, but am watching this thread with interest.
