30 caliber refers to any cartridge loaded with a bullet approximately 30/100 inch in diameter. 30-06 is just one of about 100 different 30 caliber cartridges.
They are the same; just said in different order.
.30 vs. .355
They're both measurements of the diameter of the round (or the barrel). Caliber is a measurement in inches, and millimeters are millimeters. For instance, a .30 caliber bullet is 30 hundredths of an inch, or 7.62 millimeters in diameter.
The difference between .30 and .32 typically refers to the caliber of firearms and ammunition. A .30 caliber is approximately 7.62 mm in diameter, commonly used in rifles like the .30-06 Springfield, while a .32 caliber is about 7.65 mm, often found in handguns such as the .32 ACP. The .30 caliber generally offers higher velocity and energy, making it suitable for larger game hunting, whereas the .32 caliber is more commonly used for self-defense and smaller game. Overall, the choice between the two depends on the intended use and specific firearm design.
it might be for the Krag rifle, cal. 30/40..... not 30/06
30 odd 6 .3006 of an inch same difference
None. Same cartridge, different name.
Surprisingly little. Both are .30 caliber, one uses a longer case and more powder, than the other. The 30-06 is a longer cartridge. It is a similar situation as the .38/.357 and the .44mag/.44sp, or the .45LC/.454 The performance difference between the two is pretty small, with the 06 showing a flatter trajectory at the greater distances. Unless you're competitive, you'll be quite happy with either caliber.
Yes it is, it uses a .30 caliber bullet which makes it a 30 caliber
30/06 is one
30 caliber
A 5.56mm is the same thing as a .225 caliber. If you do the math, a 30 caliber is MUCH bigger!
