What quality paid 500–600 lb

Frame and muscle grade

Frame / muscle	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Medium and Large 1	527	485.75	2,559	10thin
Medium and Large 2	518	468.37	2,426	12thin
Medium and Large 3	545	455.00	2,480	1thin

One grade step is worth $30.75/cwt here — about $79 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.

This barn's trailing prices 500–600 lb

19 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $477.55, low $356.55, median $434.36 across 19 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
