First thing I'd do is to connect up a bourdon-tube type (mechanical) oil pressure gauge and verify the pressures. One point of evidence that your gauge is suspect is that a cold startup should never peg the gauge, the pressure relief valve should control it to about midpoint or a bit higher on the existing gauge. Perhaps the electrical sending unit is failing.
