One grade step is worth $48.57/cwt here — about $203 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.

28 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $446.91, low $331.76, median $396.31 across 28 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
