Some bullets if they are nato standard or originated in europe. But other wise it can be based in inch or how many round balls you can make by dividing one pound of lead

If the caliber is given in gauge or bore its the pound of lead i think. So a 12 gauge shotgun is the diameter of 1/12pound lead ball
