I'm picking up a hard case for my HXV200, battery(x6), P2 card(x2), P2Store, and factory single position charger+power unit. I'm moving cross country at the end of the month, so I don't have the means to grab a Pelican or anything like that, so here are my Craigslist options on sizes of older Anvil cases(I know, things weigh a ton=/) which is really all I can afford for the move.

Case #1:26x16 1/2x8 1/2
Case #2:24 1/2x19x11
Case #3:30x20x8

All are the same price, so if anyone could tell me which would be the most case I can get here, I would be very grateful for the help here.
 
by "dont have the means" do you mean the move is eating up your money?
i wouldnt get a heavy-ass anvil just to save money. there is nothing that makes shooting days more of a pain than carting around overly heavy gear.

i have a pelican 1610 that holds all you mentioned and more. i think i paid just under $200 for it new a couple years ago.

unless you absolutely need HARD cases right this moment (like youre checking your camera on a plane or something) id just hold off until i could afford a better suited case.

BUT to answer your question. the only case in your list above that i consider deep enough is #2

thanks for the reply.
Yes, the move is using up most of my money. After I looked at what the upside to a Pelican are, I decided to pass on them actually.. Just makes sense to just keep wht was going into an Anvil and it's already that much less I gotta get for a Pelican once I get around to one ya know? And thanks for the # there and setting me straight on what I shouldn't go less than with how deep any case I'm looking at should be.
