The drill size for self tapping screws is the size of the barrel. ie,the bit that forms the body of the screws inside the thread. If you are using 1/8 screws then the body would be about 3/32. If I'm doing an unfamiliar size, I always experiment with 2-3 for best size. -An easier way is to simply use 'drill tipped screws' -These are available at an drywall wholesaler.
