That made marks in the aluminium, and I could measure the marked Places on the tapered plug. Took great care to get good measurements, but its probably only accurate to the closest tenth of a mm.

Tracker port: 2.6mm
Osprey port: 4.1mm

That explains a lot of the noise and slam from the osprey, and means I have some sleeving to do....
Absolutely, 4.1mm is way to large. I would go for 2.8 - 3mm max in an Osprey.
