5 gal better bottle volume.

Forgive the stupidity of this question, but yeah. I racked q dry hopped batch to my secondary, and i want to figure out the approximate volume for priming sugar. Does anyone have a picture of a 5 gal better bottle that they marked volume on?

I haven't put level marks on a 5 gal. yet, but I did this on a 6 gal. better bottle branded carboy using a digital scale for accuracy (8.345 lb/gal). 6 gal was pretty much right up to the bottom of the neck. Same goes for a 3 gal.

This is the second batch I've put in this vessel and this is the second time I wish I made measured markings.
