One grade step is worth $45.12/cwt here — about $217 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.

27 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $461.89, low $384.72, median $433.18 across 27 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
