Yes, you will save, ALOT. I have been buyting live fed out, but not finished Angus/Simmental steers. Ussually about 1200-1300 lbs. I pay what ever the farmer has been recieving at the sales barn, his ussally bring top price. This January I am getting 4-5 of them, and we agreed on a price of $.89/lb-live weight. We ussually end up selling to freinds for what we have into them for gas, live weight, and $30 for using the father in laws trailer. Last year the largest hanging half was 377#, we charged $1.58 a pound hanging weight, which is $595.66 for a half. I have heard of some people paying $2.40-$3.00 a pound hanging weight, but I couldnt do that to freinds. Ok enough babble. I would say you will spend $550-$650 for a half steer, plus processing costs, just make sure you are getting what you pay for, not paying for a angus and getting a 3 year old holstien steer.
