What term describes the size of a rifle or handgun bore and the size of cartridges designed for different bores?

Unfortunately, there is no uniform system of naming of cartridges in relation to the caliber of guns that shoot them. A .22 Long Rifle is ABOUT 22/100s of an inch in diameter, a 45-70 rifle fired a .45 caliber (45/100ths of an inch diameter) bullet propelled by 70 grains of black powder- but the 30-06 fired a .30 caliber bullet, and was created in 1906. With shotguns, the number of the gauge referred to the number of round lead balls in one pound that would fit in the bore (12 balls that would fit in a 12 gauge would be 1 pound. 16 balls that fitted a 16 g, would weigh 1 lb, etc)
