One grade step is worth $20.00/cwt here — about $156 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.

This barn's trailing prices 500–600 lb

9 sales

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $415.76, low $365.20, median $387.65 across 9 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
