That's actually "normal".

The fuel senders in the tank are touchy and changes in the dummy gauge do not do a great job of changing according to fuel consumption.

I think the it tends to be somewhat more accurate on either pole, but everything in the middle is a bit of a guess.

I always fill up as I creep past 1/2 a tank and keep track of my mileage between each fill-up, so its not an issue.
