Eldon,

Yes, I have measured 8 gauge bores with the Hosford bore gauge. It does not come with a standard (calibration) ring for 8 gauge but calibrating it for 10 gauge puts it pretty darn close to perfect for 8 gauge.

Also, for most tasks an accurate differential is all that is required, i.e. the amount of choke constriction.
