One grade step is worth $61.93/cwt here — about $435 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.

15 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $436.12, low $316.66, median $393.91 across 15 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
