If you want to do the job over a couple of weekends kill it 1 Saturday bone it the next Saturday and re hang in primal and pack it the 3rd Saturday. If the chiller is running warm or being opened all the time it shortens up the hanging time. Make sure the chiller is on and down to temperature before putting the beef in alot make the mistake of putting it in then turning the chiller on. For cutting a beef in half a bacho saw works good or if you have a reciprocating saw get a makita or bosch stainless blade don't use a chainsaw makes alot of mess and the bone fragments will go green first. Hope this helps out a bit

    Probably find it was a ballistic tip they are rubbish for shooting stuff in the forehead good old fashioned cup and core all day. I put 80% of my beef down with a 22 magnum
