Furlong (US Survey)

The furlong (US survey) is a traditional unit of distance used in U.S. land surveying, defined as 1/8 of a U.S. survey mile, or exactly 660 U.S. survey feet. Since one U.S. survey foot equals approximately 0.3048006096 meters, the US survey furlong is about 201.1684 meters long.

While the difference between the US survey furlong and the international (standard) furlong is extremely small (just a few micrometers), it was significant in precise land measurements, particularly in legal and cadastral surveying contexts.

Key Conversions:

1 US survey furlong = 660 US survey feet
1 US survey furlong ≈ 220 yards
1 US survey furlong ≈ 201.1684 meters
8 US survey furlongs = 1 US survey mile

As of 2023, the U.S. has officially deprecated the use of the survey foot (and by extension the survey furlong) in favor of the international foot, but it may still appear in historical and legal documents.

Caliber

Caliber is a term used to describe the internal diameter of a cylindrical object, most commonly the inside diameter of a gun barrel or firearm bore. It is typically measured in inches or millimeters.

In firearms, caliber indicates the diameter of the bullet or projectile that can be fired from the barrel (e.g., a .45 caliber means the barrel’s internal diameter is 0.45 inches).
In other contexts, such as engineering or piping, caliber can refer more generally to the diameter or thickness of tubes or cylindrical objects.

Key points:

Caliber = internal diameter of a barrel or tube
Measured in inches or millimeters
Important for firearm specifications and ammunition compatibility
Also used in engineering and manufacturing

Caliber is crucial for matching ammunition to firearms and for defining performance characteristics like velocity and accuracy.
