[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1737071, member: 14585"] The butchers that I use all charge processing by hanging weight pounds, so the heavier it weighs the more they get paid, so no reason for them to weigh it light. 570 lbs hanging is either correct or a very good processing deal. Seems the live weight is about 200 lbs heavy. Were you in the truck or out of the truck both times when the weight was stamped? p.s. gut fill will effect live weights by about 3-4% [/QUOTE]
