depends, there are all sorts of different sizes of marbles.
personally, i use some 5/8" galvanized steel (fits with maybe 1/8-1/4" room around the marble) but thats just because i was too cheap to buy the brass pipe that fit it perfectly.

so it all depends on what kinda marbles you're using

My paintball barrel fits them quite nicely not perfect but enough to go through 1/2" PLY.

i use half inch sch 40 pvc. it doesnt fit normal sized marbles but slightly smaller ones it fits pretty well. plus you can shoot double A batteries out of it too.
