 Subject:  British artillery nomenclatureList thread.  
  
 Date:  Jul 24, 2008
 From:  tom deimling 
Can anyone point me to a web page that will translate "pounder" into gun bore diameters? I guess that the naming was left over from earlier days but each time I try to figure out what was the corresponding mm/inch diameter, I get a headache.

Thanks,

Tom Deimling
