Grain Volumes for 5,6 & 7 Gallon Buckets

[CBelli]

I have been using 6gal homer style buckets with a gamma seal lids to store my grain for about a year. The gamma seal lids are awesome. Recently I decided to up the size a bit.. I grabbed the some 7gal size.
Not finding 'pound to gallon' volumes online I figured I would share my results.

5gal= 22.9lbs of grain
6gal= 27.5lbs of grain
7gal= 32lbs of grain
