The "Go" and "No-Go" gauges are most useful when you're cutting a chamber. Typically you cut a new chamber to size so that the action closes on a "Go" gauge and will not close on a "No-Go" gauge.

There is also a "Field" gauge, which (by itself) can help ensure that an existing chamber / bolt train combination is safe to fire.

The bolt should never completely close on a "Field" gauge.
