One grade step is worth $29.08/cwt here — about $86 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 400–500 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

21 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $510.67, low $367.20, median $441.21 across 21 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
