LolI am estimating my cost this year at less than 5 cents a pound. Put up about 104# in the freezer.My costs are:1 reloaded cartridge.Probably less than a quarter gallon of diesel to get the deer with the tractor.Zipper bags for freezing.Few pennies of eletricity to keep the lights on in the garage while butchering.</blockquote>
