The only gauge standards I know of that you can measure against are certified gauge blocks. For a wand gauge, you would need to measure the wand with a micrometer or caliper that has been compared to gauge blocks. Here is a video I made comparing feeler gauges to gauge blocks:

Here is one on zeroing non-wand gauges:

The shape of your end probe on the gauge can affect your reading as well as your ability to position it. Wand gauges can also have issues. Take a few reading to see how repeatable your are.
Manufacturing variability is a reality. It is rare to find several new mouthpieces from the same maker that will measure the same within .001”-.002”. Used mouthpieces can vary even more from target due to wear and slight warpage over time. Sometimes the errors offset and it actually measures on target!
