What quality paid 500–600 lb

Frame and muscle grade

Medium and Large 2	553	337.24	1,865	9thin

One grade step is worth $64.27/cwt here — about $370 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 600–700 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

19 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $418.00, low $332.28, median $387.08 across 19 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
