Looking to use an intermediate length gas system,

Found a barrel that is tapped for that length,

.6500 is the size of the gas port hole
.750 diameter of the barrel

What size should I have the guy drill out the gas port to?

I plan on using a PRI type adjustable gas block incase I need to make adjustments so it cycles properly.

I plan on shooting 147 gr surplus/winchester white box on the regular, but may start using match ammo.

Can anyone shed some light as to what size given different loads easily available?

This is on an AR style build.
