Kalashnikirby, I've not measured an Uebel Superior but I suppose it's at least close to a Schwenk & Seggelke French bore clarinet - since Jochen Seggelke is the acoustic advisor to the Uebel company (now officially stated also at the S&S Website). "Dorjepismo" once wrote the following about the bore of S&S clarinets: "Their 'French bore' starts at 15 mm on the upper joint and goes to 14.55 mm."

Concerning the Foag RB I needed to pull out the longest provided barrel about 1 mm and also the joints mostly about the same to get an a=442 general level (he also makes an 440 version with a longer lower joint, which probably would suite me better). For me internal tuning was problematic, but I'm still thinking that some "fine tuning" of the clarinet itself could improve it. I also had some grunting (undertoning) issues in the lower clarion, but don't know the reason for it. I should have tested it for possible leaks, but didn't.
