Frame and muscle grade

Frame / muscle	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Medium and Large 1-2	524	177.58	930	136

Only one grade was reported at this weight, so there is no spread to compute.

This barn's trailing prices 0–100 lb

16 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $223.27, low $184.42, median $207.39 across 16 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt
