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

34 sales

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $456.37, low $307.28, median $383.70 across 34 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
