Why Caliber Names Make No Sense?

Ammunition naming follows zero logic because it's 150 years of different companies calling their cartridges whatever sounded good for marketing.

Start with 500-1,000 rounds of quality practice ammunition in your gun's caliber. Add 50-100 rounds of premium defensive ammunition if you're carrying the gun.
