I don't know about practice, but the amoraim are choleqim on the shiur
for shehiyah, the Rif, Rambam, Tur and Mechabeir all have a shiur,
and we Ashk (starting at least with the Rama) hold it's a mah shehu.

However, RYL asked RSM, who is *the* authority on how meat is shechted
lemaaseh. If R' Mandel said that all Seph meat is kosher to Ashk, I
assume they lemaaseh do niqur and avoid shehiyah in ways that make
that statement true.

Tir'u baTov!
