Gun numbers everywhere

[whipkiller]

So I spend a good chunk of my time making up pricing for customers quote requests, and I've noticed I find myself using gun numbers a lot.

I figure out a certain gross profit we want to get on something, and if it comes out to say .225670 I always seem to price it @ .223/ea, or something costs us $4.50/ea and we want to make a dollar on it, the customer gets a quote for 5.56

It popped into my head 'cuz I found myself quoting someone 7.62/ea on something just now and it made me chuckle because a lot of times I don't even notice I'm doing it.

So if any of you Calgunners are ever buying fasteners and you get a quote back that looks like you're buying ammo, it might be me.

Just an observation of some of the weird things that go on in my head.

I've gone into the country building dept. and they give you a number when you come in.....twice in a row my number was 1911.

It'd be nice to have 45 on the cake.
