How do you know if master cylinder needs a rebuild kit or just needs to be replaced?

I'm wondering if I'm not getting the full throw of the pedal because the master cylinder needs to be replaced? It's not leaking but could the fluid not get forced into hyd line to pull the slave cylinder the proper distance?

I'm 90% sure there isn't air in the system. The pedal is hard the full stroke, not squishy like typical air in the line.
