Talk:.440 Artillery

Would this be .440 artillery? I thought it was 440mm Artillery, in line with the modern system for classifying artillery peices. --Darkfire27983 22:55, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

No, it's gotta be 440mm. StAraqiel 03:03, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

HELL, NO! a 440mm Artillery gun is WAY larger than a 20 millimeter, which is already an mounted artillery piece, seen in the movie, Saving Private Ryan (No, User: Ryanngreenday... not you). --B le mo 23  http://www.wikia.com/skins/common/progress-wheel.gif TALK • CONTRIBUTIONS • SERVICE RECORD 03:41, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

440mm is insanly large. Considering most modern artillery guns use 200-120mm. Maybe if it was a mortar, which i doubt. Chances are, its .440 --Ajax 013 15:55, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

I would normally not think it was 440mm, but the way it shook the ground made it seem to me to be a massive explosive. I honestly don't know, just a theory I was wondering on. I allways get a little confused by calibers. Darkfire27983 22:53, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

While I was reading up on the Iowa class Battleship, I came across the size of the 16 inch main battery, which is 406mm in size. 440mm wouldnt be that much of a stretch for 500 years in the future, although I would doubt it to be a very mobile artillery piece, it still seems plausible that it could be 440mm,Darkfire27983 13:05, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
