Floor Pump and Pressure Gauge Inconsistency...What number to believe?

My apologizes for hijacking this thread and if anyone wants to spank me they can go right head but I have a question about when to read tire pressure when using a floor pump? I have a Bontrager HP Turbo Charger floor pump that I got at a Thrift Store for $12 and I absolutely love it and will probably take it to my grave with me.
Is it best to look at the gauge on the downstroke or after the downstroke has been completed and the pump/guage is at rest? Thanks everyone and now back to your regularly scheduled program which may already be in progress.
