Default Production calculations

The board seems unusually quiet these days, so I figured I could slip
in one of my invariably inane questions.
What are your experiences / ratios with must - raw - wine production
from a half ton of red wine grapes?
I have had at least 10% variances, but the ratio would seem to be;

1000 lbs = apx. 120 gallons must = 80 gallons pressed raw wine = 70
gallons finished wine
Anyone have different numbers?

can you tell I'm doing container planning for the '07 season!
