I have put more than a few on the scales that were at or a bit over 60... 64 was the biggest I can recall, but that was out of a huge pile of them. Several years were pushing 200 per year.

Fall/winter beaver are usually healed up and I haven't had a fur buyer ding me for healed cuts in the leather and they don't show in the fur. After the first shot the rest are just noise.
