Bullet of unknown calibre.
I bought this at a museum. I put the ruler next to it because I'd like to know its calibre

All you have to do is measure it the other way. "Calibre" is the term for the diameter of the bullet.

I agree with Platapus. A simple cross-measure take with my pen shows it to be precisely 1/2", or .50 cal., or 12.5mm.
