One grade step is worth $82.54/cwt here — about $375 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.

32 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $472.37, low $309.23, median $409.18 across 32 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
