I mostly use my 12ga finger. Probably a dime is the most used choke gauge. Some will have apoplexy about that.
I have an inexpensive Brownell's bore and choke gauge that I use. I have lust in my heart over those fancy and costly wall thickness gauge sets, I'll probably leave it at that.
By the way, most who know me know that I feel we make way too much about what loads to shoot and cartridge lengths. These Parkers were made for any reasonable load that didn't rattle your teeth or leave you black and blue. I don't think these super duper Golden Cloud Ultra Max Prairie Firestorm pheasant loads are appropriate for any gun or bird, but there are a lot of off the shelf loads that work fine.
