Going to be bottling my Rhubarb-Raspberry Wheat within the next week or so and I am going to use Priming tablets

does 1-2 per 12oz bottle and 3-4 per 22oz sound about right?
 
I have had good luck with 1 sugar cube per 12oz for the little I bottle.
 
Coopers and Muntons will have different amounts to be used. Coopers is 1 per 12 oz and 2 per 22 oz. Not sure about muntons (am I even spelling that right, muntons?)
 
I think the standard size of a sugar cube is 1 tsp. Most reccomendations for measuring per bottle by volume are 3/4 tsp per 12 oz bottle to end up with ~2.7 vol of carbonation. I would guess that a standard size sugar cube per bottle would result in pretty high levels of carbonation, which may or may not be desireable for a particular beer. A raspberry wheat might be one of the few styles where it would work well though.
