  20 mm caliber - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
The 20 mm caliber is a specific size of cannon or autocannon ammunition, commonly the smallest caliber which is unambiguously a cannon (or more commonly today, autocannon) and not a heavy machine gun.
Like most cannon ammunition, 20 mm caliber weapons are typically used against large targets such as vehicles, buildings, or aircraft.
Cartridge type indicates the diameter of projectile and the length of the cartridge that holds it, for example 20×102 is a 20 mm projectile in a 102 mm long case.

 Beyond the Call of Duty - Munitions
For standardization with the existing ammunition caliber, the cartridge was changed to 7.62 mm, though the tolerances of the cartridge case and bullet practically had not changed.
The ammo was adopted by the Red Army under the title - " 7.62 mm, cartridge for pistols, type 1930 ".
It was inspired by Germany's development of the 7.92 x 57 mm Mauser cartridges.

 M82 (rifle)
The Barrett M82 rifles were bought by various military and police forces from at least 30 countries, such as Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Israel, Italy, Mexico, The Netherlands, Norway, The Philippines, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, UK, USA and others.
This weapon was fitted with a shorter barrel of 25 mm caliber, and fired low-velocity high explosive shells developed for 25 mm OCSW automatic Grenade Launcher.
A particular moment of note is when one of the movie's antagonists attempts to dodge a single shot from the M82 by the protagonist, Prisoner KSC2-303, in a mockingly Matrix-esque/Neo manner and fails miserably as he is blown to bits just as ED-209 was in the first " Robocop " film.

 Dodge Caliber: little SUVs
Size-wise, the Caliber is similar to the Matrix, though it seems a bit wider and lower — like the Commander, it looks taller than it is; it isn’t all that high but seems to have nice interior space.
While the Caliber is neither as slippery as the first-generation Neon nor as light, both of which make its performance nowhere near as good as a stick-shift Neon, it has more cargo space, more passenger room, and higher safety and emissions standards...not to mention a high performance diesel option for Europeans.
The Caliber SRT-4 blasts the XRS out of the water, but is rated at the same acceleration as the Neon SRT-4; it is probably safer and easier to drive, though.
