measurement unit edit

107 grains read 107grams ? or is it not the bullets` unit mass (for weigh) the gram? please disrespect reading the crossarticle`s image LCD display.188.25.55.134 (talk) 18:56, 18 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

For later readers who come across this, no, grains is correct; the U.S. traditionally uses this unit for bullet weights. Grains are much smaller than grams; there are about 15.4 grains per gram. A bullet of 107 grams would be a monstrously heavy thing for a handgun to shoot. That's about the weight of a modern 20 mm autocannon round; in more ordinary terms, it approaches the weight of a baseball. --Colin Douglas Howell (talk) 08:40, 16 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
