He mixed definitions in his response. 50 cal is the length of the 16in tube. .50 cal is the diameter of the machinegun bullet. If you say .50 is the cal of the machine gun than 16 in is the cal of the naval gun not 50 cal
My guns are still .60 and 16" am I correct? The barrel isn longer than that of an Iowa class.
