Yes, a 9mm caliber round is generally more powerful than a .380 ACP bullet. The 9mm typically has a larger case capacity and can accommodate more gunpowder, resulting in higher velocity and energy upon firing. This increased power translates to greater stopping power and penetration compared to the .380 caliber.

Is a 50 caliber bullet measured differently than a 5.56 caliber bullet. if so how is the 50 larger than the 5.56?

They are most certainly measured differently. The "50" in 50 caliber is measuring in inches and should actually be referred in writing as ".50 Caliber." The "5.56" is in millimeters (mm) and should be written as "5.56mm".To compare the two:.50 Caliber = 1/2 inch = 12.7mm5.56mm = ~ .2189 inchSo the .50 caliber bullet is roughly 2.28 times wider than the 5.56mm caliber bullet.
