What size of Mice should I use?

I have a 4' 3'' Yellow Snow Corn Snake. I was wondering what size of mice I should use to feed him. Pinks, Fuzzies, Adult, or Small Rats, Medium Rats, or Large Rats.
 
A general rule of thumb is feed items should be no larger than one and a half times the size of the thickest part of the snake. I would think your adult size snake could handle adult mice without a problem, assuming it is healthy.
If this is not what he has been fed on, a slow increase in size of his current meal over a few feedings is needed, don't just dump in an adult mouse if he has been eating small (fuzzy) sized mice for an extreme example.
