What quality paid 500–600 lb

Frame and muscle grade

Frame / muscle	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Medium and Large 1-2	557	347.07	1,934	65
Medium and Large 2	589	315.43	1,858	5thin

One grade step is worth $40.07/cwt here — about $181 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.

31 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $407.76, low $331.48, median $380.25 across 31 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
