[QUOTE="dun, post: 63881, member: 34"] Slide and shrink are different. If I remember correctly, when you buy them at an average weight, the slide is how much they are discounted per either lb or 100 lbs for those over the average. Shrink is the weight they loose in actual or by pencil from there weighed weight. If you buy them at a sale usually the shrink is already thre, if you buy them and weigh them at the farm, the usual shrink is 2% (pencil shrink), but can be negotiated I've had slide explained to me dozens of times, but that's the one explanation that made some sense. dun [/QUOTE]
