Just wondering how many know the difference between calibre and cartridge?

[QUOTE="Azrael, post: 1459079, member: 106296"] Bullet head isn't unheard of in Canada, but its always either black-gun guys or someone who has at some time in their life said "shottie" who use it. Maybe heads naturally grow out of necks? I've never met an American or Canadian that referred to bullets as projectiles unless he was talking to an Aussie. Never heard of a sleeve of primers or a packet of bullets (or projos) or a tube of powder outside of Australia, but nobody there ever blinked when I asked for a brick of primers which apparently holds 10 sleeves. I can however look the container primers come in and muse that it actually is more of a sleeve than a box. These little differences in nomenclature make the world a richer place, and shooters will sort it out. [/QUOTE]
