Generally, a bullet's caliber has NOTHING to do with its accuracy.

So your question cannot be answered.

However, a 9mm is usually a handgun round, used at close range (0-15meters). A .223 is typically used at longer ranges, but could be used close-up as well.

At distances greater than 20 meters, up to 500 meters, the .223 will be more accurate, if the weapon is dialed-in.

What is difference between a 223 caliber bullet and a 45 bullet?

Caliber refers to the diameter of a bullet (bullet is the part of a cartridge that is fired out of the gun). A .223 caliber bullet is .223 inches across. It is normally used as a rifle cartridge. a .45 caliber bullet is more than twice as wide as a .223, and is usually used in pistols. The .223 is lighter- it weighs about 1/4 of a .45 bullet, and they are different shapes- .223 is usually pointed, the .45 is rounded.
