We ran the McMaster tubing at our first competition and it definitely showed some wear and caused some issues in eliminations, I am wondering if the spear gun tubing will be better.

I can't verify that they are the same as we haven't gotten the amazon stuff but they are both latex rubber. So can't be much different. What size did you try from McMaster?
There are many variables to what causes wear, such as attachment points and stretch %.
