I found this:

1 fifth = 25.6 ounces (1/5 gallon)

it's from this site, which may or may not be telling the truth (http://www.livingtodo.com/recipes/drinks/measurements.htm)

That's exactly right - a "fifth" and a "twenty-sixer" are the same thing (twenty-six ounces). There are two main sizes of booze bottles produced: the "mickey" (13 ounces, or half of a fifth) and the 26 oz. bottles.

26 oz. = 750mL
13 oz. = 375mL
