There are many ways to measure a bore, and many factors that influence the accuracy of hole diameter measurements. For example, we know that operator skill in using rocking-type adjustable bore gages can influence the results, as can variations in part geometry. This may make even technically accurate measurements inaccurate from a part-function perspective, so it is important to consider the effects of gage centralization for smaller bores.
