A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.

17 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $462.50, low $332.31, median $379.30 across 17 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
