looking for headset ball bearings for the Campagnolo headset

I think they're 7/32", e.g. https://simplybearings.co.uk/shop/p37914/7/32-inch-Diameter-Grade-10-Hardened-52100-Chrome-Steel-Ball-Bearings/product_info.html

I have a set of Facom vernier gauges which are not the most precise.

The to upper bearings were about 4mm while the lower bearing were about 5mm.

So from what I measured I think they are 3/16" / 0.187 = 4.76mm

Record EC34 AHead? Apparently 5/32" upper and 3/16" lower. You can still get the genuine caged sets for about £15, but there's nothing wrong with using loose balls if you can be bothered with the fiddly assembly.
