I've found modern Copal 0 shutters to be very consistent year after year, always predictably remaining within a sixth stop or so, except the very fastest stop, which is generally too far off to be worthwhile anyway. But what those exact speeds are at each setting needs to be precisely measured, and then you can just print a cheat sheet or tiny label for the lensboard itself telling you the correction factor at each speed, if any. In certain cases, I haven't found any deviation from the official one. I use a Calumet electronic shutter tester.
