Ah! I think I see!

So when I'm setting gain, I normally do this based on an exposure on a white surface at 0.01 seconds exposure, then when the initial data signal shows a peak at around 500-700 on my histogram I generally set gain at that point.

Is it something like calculating the % is then the target for the 'stretch' point on that histogram (i.e. where the white point is set) taking into account the well depth of the camera per your excellent description below?
