One grade step is worth $49.15/cwt here — about $262 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 300–400 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

24 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $444.83, low $343.47, median $408.05 across 24 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
