[QUOTE="Browninglover1, post: 893257, member: 29966"] It supposedly has to do with the nomenclature of how calibers are named. In he US we name our cartridges based off diameter of the bullet but in Europe they name the cartridge based off the diameter of the bore before riflings are added. Hence a .264 inch bullet has a 6.5mm (.256) bore. [/QUOTE]
