one gallon equals 8.33 lbs respectively. 5 gallon pail should hold 41.56 lbs considering the rounding up and down on the math.
Hope that helps, Take care and be safe,

the moultrie 6 gal feeders hold 50lb...so 1 gallon less would be in the low 40s
About three bushels, distilled.

About half of a 50 lb bag of corn. So around 25 lbs. Obviously we all have different size buckets

I'd Venture to say 3lb if it is popped and you add butter and salt
I had one of the Walmart Remington brand bucket feeders that was stolen after I took it down last fall. It would hold all of a 40 lb bag if it were filled to the top.

This......
I weighed some @ 33 pounds, bucket leveled one inch below rim. Moisture and test weight of the product are the variables.

No such thing as different sized "5 gallon" buckets. The OP was asking how much corn would fit in a "5 gallon bucket"?

The one I weighed was 33 pounds.....
Some feeder manufacturers must use 6 gallon buckets if a 5 only holds 33 lb.
I should have been more clear, I bought a used feeder with a manufacturer bucket (which may be 6 gallons) and I put a feeder motor on a store bought 5 gallon bucket.
