When I worked in a gun store, one of the most common demands I heard was, "Gimme a box of seven emm-emm bullets."

I NEVER knew what they meant. Did they want a box of bullets for reloading, or a box of ammo for one of MANY different kinds of seven-millimeter cartridges. And when I tried to determine the answer, they'd invariably get whizzed off and call ME the dummie.
