Going out this AM in search of thicker mat'l to make some GC, what I have is too thin. Basically plan to save my .008" stuff for when I get time to make a die for PB GC, but in the mean time will doubled material work? .016" total thickness will work, actually might be more than necessary by the numbers and I hate to feel like I'm wasting this thin stuff that has better uses.

My best luck with .30 cal. gas check material has been with .014" Aluminum Ameri Max.

Many Ace Hardware stores have it ( or can get it )

Take your mike with you to the store, you'll need it to measure the thickness of the materials.

Here is a link showing my friend Bryan shooting some .014" Ameri - Max gas checks in his 06' :
