One grade step is worth $22.68/cwt here — about $101 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.

33 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $477.34, low $360.86, median $441.86 across 33 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
