Bostitch staple question

Anyone tried using 1/4" staples in a Bostitch air stapler? The recommended size
is 7/32". This size is available only in large quantities & only a few lengths.
I was thinking of trying the 1/4" as they seem to be more popular, but don't
want to mess up the gun. Any tips/suggestions welcome.

Thanks
Big John

I know the bostich staples will not feed in a PC gun and HTF staples will
not feed in the bostich. That help any?
