I forgot to weight in my last pieces but just curious "on average" what a should might cook down to.  Say butt, bone in, twin 10lb-ers. 
 
Depends on what cut of meat and if it is bone in or boneless. When I use boneless its shoulder its usually closer to 30-35% loss. But a bone in but I have had 50%.
