Unit Definition (mile [Roman, ancient])
A non metric unit of length; a statute mile, used for distances over land, is defined as 5280 ft.; a nautical mile, used for distances along the surface of the oceans, is defined as one minute of arc measured along the equator, which equals 6080.27 fit or 1.1516 statute miles.

Unit Definition (caliber)
The caliber is a unit used to express the bore diameter of a gun. Traditionally, the diameter is stated in inches, so that ".22 caliber" refers to a pistol having a bore of 0.22 inches (5.588 mm). So the caliber is actually equivalent to the inch. The usage of the term "caliber" is actually now in decline, because bore diameters of many guns are now stated in millimeters. "Caliber" is the American spelling; elsewhere the unit is often spelled "calibre."
