Apologies if this is the wrong place.
I have searched the internet for a simple way to determine a cartridge calibre but I cannot find anything straightforward so can someone explain?
Would a 20mm shell measure 20mm diameter at the base? Is the length designated from base to rim or from base to tip of projectile?
So with the examples here I guess the large one is a 30mm round and other 20mm? I know all this seems obvious but I want to check I’m getting this right.
Also, I can find code info on the internet about place of manufacture but how do you determine the rounds purpose? Flak, HE, anti tank? Please help an ammo dummy!
