im sure its been discussed, but search fails me

good brand gauges to buy?

do i need all 3?

Ideally the guages would be the from the same source as the reamer. For all around use, I use PTG guages, and you really only need a go and no-go. The field guage is not used at build time, and ig generally used in the military to determine if a rifle chamber is worn out. I doubt that you will shoot that many rounds through your rifle.

Just get a go gauge from Manson. He keeps them in stock. Put a piece of masking tape on rear of gauge and you then have a no go. Or buy both. Some folks just like the reassurance of the no go gauge
