Dean, would you let us know what brand of unreliable wall thickness gauge you are using?

Bill, it is a Brownell’s. In my experience there is too much flex in the rods.

What is the proper recommended way to use it? I have never had luck with consistent readings.

I never had a problem with a Hosford but I don’t own one. My experience with a Hosford has been with the one formerly at the James D. Julia Auction House.
