I realize every gun is different, but I’ll be driving a water-cooled MG over a good distance.  They don’t make a Dosko Sport case for something with these dimensions.    What are you doing for transport?

I don’t have one of the aforementioned MGs, but this is the first place I look for cases:

Look at hard cases made for large telescopes. They will usually have wheels on one end.

You can get them with pluck foam interiors so they can be custom fit to whatever you put inside.

Driving? Most of us either build a wooden crate or use an original one. Of course flying would likely need something fancier.

If you have any woodworking tools or experience at all, they can be pretty enjoyable to build. Make sure to leave some room for your accessories. Wood rope handles, metal hinges and latches. Paint it up with a nice color. No need to make it super nice finish, just durable.  

Though I think pelican makes some larger cases. Even M2HB size cases. I'm pretty sure OOW offers one for their M2

look at Used Music equipment Flight cases, like for stage gear and such.
Made of tough plywood, aluminum corners and edges, foam lined interiors. Will have recessed handles and Usually beefy casters too.

I’m looking for one as well. Considering this one:

Looks like it’s cheaper to but direct and shipping is free for March.

Nanuk makes a great case.  May still be too small for my needs, but I’m leaning that route.

I would love a case for my Street Sweeper. I need to look at these ideas later.

Nanuk makes a couple of other ones that appear significantly deeper than the 995 that might work well for the depth of your water-cooled setup.
