BCW boxes assume that you get about 56 unsleeved cards per inch (cpi). Using KMC inner sleeves and Ultra Pro Matte outers I have personally seen the following: Pressed completely flat, no space: 41 cpi Comfortably snug: 38 cpi 100 card commander deck sitting on a table: 35 cpi.
Your measurements might vary depending on the thickness of the sleeves you use. I' ve noticed the Ultra Pro clear sleeves are thicker than the pro mattes, but haven't sleeved enough clears to measure (I've only done some double sided tokens).
I had trouble finding size ratios when I started all of my sleeving. Everyone talks about how great double sleeving is, but no one talks about how the sizing changes. Mostly (I assume) because a lot of players just sleeve their main decks and a few people sleeve cubes.
