One grade step is worth $20.83/cwt here — about $117 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.

31 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $454.38, low $331.62, median $404.01 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
