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

20 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $508.27, low $419.84, median $470.70 across 20 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
