One grade step is worth $81.33/cwt here — about $488 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 200–300 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

19 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $452.70, low $347.74, median $408.12 across 19 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
