As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows gauging 3.00 to 9.00 higher overall with slaughter bulls mostly steady. No market trends available for feeder classes due to limited comparable receipts, however, increased buyer activity and a higher undertone was noted.

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

Bulls 500–600 lb: high $462.86, low $319.64, median $353.65 across 27 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.
