Looking for plugs for a .125 & .130 I.D. tube, also would this size be okay for more than a rimfire build

It would/will depend on material and wall thickness as to whether or not the tube would be suitable for more than a 22 build.  

Side note:  I'm bumping this thread because I am also on the hunt for baffle material with a 1.245 O.D. so any suggestions for what and where to source material would be appreciated.

There are 1 1/4 SS plugs but they are made to to be pressed into that size hole, so they will be a press fit.  Good news for you is that Valve retainers are easy to find in that size.

yep had the line on freeze plugs, the VSR ,I haven't looked for yet just figured I'd give a buddy what I wanted and his uncle would provide part numbers that would work , actually he can order custom sizes from the company he works for but don't have and idea on a minimum order as haven't needed to go that far yet

Main question is will a  1.375 OD x 1.250 ID SS tube be okay with 9mm and maybe 45acp

I'm a novice but I personally wouldn't use something of that wall thickness for center fire rifle rounds.  Handgun, rimfire and possibly subsonic 300blk should be doable.
