Default Accurately measuring chokes

Does anyone know of someone in Balt/DC area that can accurately measure chokes and wall thicknesses of a few sets of barrels?

Probably Bill Murphy but he's in western Maryland.

Come to the Timonium Fairgrounds gun show this weekend. There will be someone there who could help you with your barrels. Bill Murphy lives not far from you and I'm near the Towson area. I've have my instruments with me. I think Bill and Kevin are at tables B4 & B5 . They will correct me if I'm wrong.
