I just ran the numbers backwards from the 405 lbs packaged weight and came up with the following. (this is based on beef breeds)
On average with a beef breed and using a standard cut she should have gotten 121 lbs of fat bone and trimmings, 89 lbs of steaks, 89 lbs of roasts, 105 lbs of burger for a total standard cut of 405lbs which would equate to a hanging weight of 552 and a hoof weight of 883. I think the 883 hoof weight is more realistic.
