[QUOTE="Buckys, post: 2066234, member: 107750"] I have been using one I bought on Amazon for other purposes: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RF2P1C5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1[/URL] My biggest gripe is what I would describe as measurement "jitter". e.g., when using with headspace gauges, I might read 2.132" with thumb pressure applied to the unit but when I release that pressure I might read 2.134". If I apply pressure while tightening the locking screw, no issues but that slows me down. The zeroing seems to work fine ... I generally find it to be on target or off by 0.0005" when I occasionally recheck the zero. Which is just to say that the precision of the measurement should not be the only concern but also the quality of the mechanical operation of the device. [/QUOTE]
