25% eh? I'm guessing they sell YOUR choice cuts in their store... I've always understood that beef type animals, particularly british breeds will dress out in the high 50's. 57, 58, 59% of live weight. Once you cut them, you get some waste. I'm no meat cutter, but I think that would take you down into the mid 40's percentage range.

The biggest thing is having a clean cold place to hang the carcass for 2-3 weeks to age it some.
