nope, they mean different things entirely, clips are a metal strap that cartridges slide onto, allowing you to push a number of cartridges into an internal magazine for reloading. Lol at an sks rifle for an example.
Bullets have always meant the projectiles, as was mentioned people slang termed cartridges some time ago and it just stuck. No changes though
