As filed

Compared to last week, a very light offering this week of feeders as the heat and many farmers in the hayfield affected receipts. Steer calves under 550 lbs. on a light test sold steady to firm, with a light offering of 550-620 lb. steers trading with a firm to higher undertone. Feeder heifers weighing from 400-600 lbs. sold mostly steady on a light test of comparable weights and quality. Slaughter cows sold steady.

32 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $525.16, low $385.53, median $480.02 across 32 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
