I am about to start investing in these for personal use and see there’s several manufacturers selling them. I see Forester, Clymer, and Pacific Tool & Gauge. Am I overlooking any? The prices are all similar so I would like to buy what is perceived as the best brand and be able to continue to buy that brand as the need arises. I will be buying both gauges not just the go gauge plus tape for no go method. Any advice before I start ordering?

Only ones I've ever used are clymer or ptg and they are good.

Tend to use PT&G.

Good equipment, but buy from another dealer, and not directly through them. They are good at making things, they suck at taking care of their customers.

Also I bought a go/no go set.

In hind sight I think you can probably get buy with only the go to set hedspace on a savage. Hardest part for me was removing the pin holding in the ejector, I couldn't find a punch small enough and I destroyed an allen wrench and a drill bit in the process but did get it to work. I didn't remove the extractor, just clip the go gauge under it and it works fine.
