Bullet diameter[edit]

@Trekphiler:, please cite your revision of my edit, according to the two versions of Barnes I have access to^[1]^[2] my edit was correct. Kind regards, Cavalryman V31 (talk) 04:26, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've got the 3d ed, table p.236, that says .476. It lists the .470 & .475 No. 2 as .483, so that may be a mistake... Either way, cite for the change would be good. TREKphiler ^{any time you're ready, Uhura} 01:45, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Both those listed below say .470 NE has a .475" bullet .476 NE has a .476" bullet, the .475 NE & .475 No 2 NE have .483" bullets and the .475 No 2 Jeffery NE has a .489" bullet. Cavalryman V31 (talk) 04:29, 13 April 2018 (UTC).[reply]
