I don't blame you for asking this question, it took some searching to find the answer.
The standard for the round is .308 or .309 (we're talking 1/1000th of an inch here.)
Most bullets are actually smaller then the named caliber of the gun, but everything I could find shows them spec'ed @ around .308" (my 94 is in .32 Win Spes and I shoot store bought ammo, sorry)
The correct cartridge for your Winchester 30WCF(Winchester Center Fire) is the 30-30 Winchester.These may be found in 150gr. or 170gr. bullet weights.
A 22 caliber bullet is 22/100 inches in diameter. A 7.62 mm bullet is 30 caliber or 30/100 inches in diameter there is no such thing as a 7.62 caliber bullet
.254, if you multiply .245 by 30 your answer is 7.62 which the diameter of a 30 cal. bullet if you multiply .254 by 50 you will get 12.7 which the diameter of a 50 cal. bullet and so on.
Yes, a .270 caliber round is larger than a .30-30 round in terms of bullet diameter. The .270 Winchester typically uses a bullet that is .277 inches in diameter, while the .30-30 Winchester uses a bullet that is .308 inches in diameter. However, the .30-30 is generally considered a heavier bullet for hunting, while the .270 is often favored for its flatter trajectory and longer range.

The 30 Winchester Center Fire (WCF) is the same as the 30-30 cartridge
None... it is the same sized bullet (.308 diameter). You have to choose the selection of bullet when reloading 30-30 ammo for the type of bullet. A pointed bullet in a tubular magazine can present a problem when the rifle recoils. The ammo is not interchangable, you must shoot the ammo that the rifle was chambered for.

Size of the rifle will vary, depending on make/ model. The 30-30 BULLET is larger in diameter and weight than the .243, but has less energy. This is due to a slower bullet.
It is .323" in diameter for the JS bullet and .318" for the J bullet. In other words, the bullet is a little larger than a 30-06 round.
yes
Actually written as 30-30, it indicated a .30 caliber bullet, driven by a charge of smokeless powder that was a weight of 30 grains. First called the .30 Winchester Center Fire (or .30 WCF) the name 30-30 was adopted by Marlin.
