What caliber is a CZ-52? I know it fires a 7.62x29 round, but I’ve never been able to figure out caliber from that?

7.62x39 is .308 caliber. It’s the round used by AK-47 and is shorter than our .308...lower muzzle velocity.

7.62 X 2.54 = .30 inches

7.62x29 means the bullet diameter is 7.62 mm ( = 0.30 inches = .30 cal) and the cartridge length is 29 mm.

Typically, 7.62 in a handgun is a .32 caliber.

7.62x39 on left, 7.62x25 on right
