    Freezing blows the cells open a bit which is kinda what you do when you hang it. It starts decomposing ( doesn't sound very good when ya say it like that :) I did a sheep a couple of months ago...

    Moa Hunter liked post by gundoc On thread : Scope bell touching the barrel just (sometimes) should I risk it
