6.35 mm Browning, 7.65 mm Browning, 9 mm Short


wtf is a 6.35mm Browning? the 7.65 is the .32acp, the 9mm short or Kurz is the .380, I've never heard of a 6.35 tho *shrug*
I believe it's .25 calibre, which I've heard of before.

I've always been horribly confused with what calibre and diameter in mm referred to. It seems that you can have bullets that are the same diameter but different calibres (at least according to what I've read), and I assume inner barrel diameter would have to be the same for those bullets as well. Urgh.
