That's funny... until I actually think about a 2.5in diameter turd... then I'm horrified.

They should just refer to the caliber

I fire 120 mm high-explosive rounds

Relevant username.

That thing is nowhere near 2.5" dia.

I googled for 50 mm. That should be close enough.

2.5 inches is 635 mm. Thats much closer to 50 cm

[–] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 year ago

That doesn't sound right to me. An inch has ~2.54 cm, so 2.5" should be 6.35 cm and a cm has 10mm, so that becomes 63.5mm

[–] SlopppyEngineer@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

1 inch is 25,4 mm, not 254 mm.

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I am often incorrect. Today is one of those days

Lol, 2.5 inches is over 2 feet?
