The definition of caliber is the nominal diameter of the bore, so be sure to put the correct legal details they are asking for. Eg, .22 long rifle is .219", .303 British is .312", 8x57 is .323" etc

Based on my recent experience the Register DOES require recording of the actual cartridge / chambering of a rifle being registered, not simply the cartridge calibre e.g. .30 , .22 , .375 cal etc. In the Register while entering details of a particular firearm there comes a point where a page of cartridge options pops up and from which selection is made. Without completing this step I'm not sure that the recording of a particular firearm can be successful. But, happy to be corrected if I'm wrong ...
