So naturally, a butt-tun would be 360 gallons......

Actually a tun is two butts (not making this up) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_wine_cask_units#butt

I think it's interesting that all the units are outdated now but the words still get used, in brewing we use a mash tun.

Gallons, what is this the stone ages? According to wiki it is a nice sensible 476.961884784 litres.

Actually I do :) everything divisible by 10 / 1000.
Feet in yard = 3
Feet in fathom = 6
Feet in chain = 66
Feet in mile = 5280
That's much easier!
However, I'm not sure the precision is warranted in this case.
