FWIW, I sometimes use the "depth gage" end my digital calipers to measure off the side of the frame/slide to the side of the rear sight and write it down then after shooting and note which way the sight needs to be drifted with my brass punch, I tap it over and re-measure to see that I did indeed move it and how far. It sometimes saves a few back and forth adjustments due to very tight dovetails that are difficult to judge how far they moved while tapping.
