One grade step is worth $30.10/cwt here — about −$20 a head. Across this sale the premium is widest at 0–100 lb. USDA reports each grade on its own line and never publishes the spread.

4 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $204.16, low $187.93, median $201.60 across 4 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
