Core or Not to Core : Curly Redwood

What are the standard sizes for cores?
I was taught with 16mm, i've seen many production cues use it too..
I've seen from 1/2" cores up to .760 on forearms. I use .750 gun drill then a plus sized reamer. My cores average .753
For your project, a larger core might have given you a firmer hit.
