NOTE. Today, the most common American practice is to designate the cartridge by the approximate bullet diameter, which in the United States is similar in diameter to the groove diameter of the rifled barrel, and the designation till generally includes the name of the company which designed the cartridge. 1, record 94, English, - US%20cartridge%20designation

NOTE. De nos jours, la pratique américaine la plus répandue consiste à nommer la cartouche d'après le diamètre approximatif de la balle, ce qui, aux Etats-Unis, équivaut au diamètre de l'âme à fond des rayures, et l'appellation comprend encore généralement le nom de la compagnie ayant conçu la cartouche. 1, record 94, French, - appellation%20am%C3%A9ricaine%20des%20cartouches
