A reference or link for the DC itself would have been nice, though.

Now I am confused.
My quote was from Wiki (sorry not giving it straight away, I just forgot to do it when typing): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_charges that in turn references this book:
"Campbell, John, Naval Weapons of World War Two, New York, New York: Naval Institute Press, 1985, ISBN 0-87021-459-4, page 89"

Wiki states - 900ft while the link you gave says: "Settings 300 feet (91 m) max, later units 500 feet (182 m)"

What is correct?
