I was watching a cop show once, and as they looked at a corpse one of the fictional cops says "That was no .38. That was a .357 magnum. Look at that hole!"

My first thought was "Yep. That hole sure looks faster to me."

On the other hand, a quick look at Navweaps confirms that all Japanese 8" guns of WW2 were /50 caliber.
