Frame and muscle grade

One grade step is worth $42.76/cwt here — about $171 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.

29 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $454.51, low $314.22, median $408.22 across 29 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
