Next time buy all 630v caps and this will never again be a question! A few cents more but at the price for shipping when you only need onesie-twosies you'll be better off in the long run.

That's good advice and what I usually do. I happened to run out of my 630V caps and was scrounging through my supplies when I found a bunch of 200V and 250V caps.
That's what prompted the questions along with my limited knowledge of electronics.
