That's interesting thanks WB. I put 20 straws of Mead Magnitude in my tank a few months ago and will be using them this Sept/Oct. I was thinking of using him a couple of years ago when he was first in the ABS catalogue here but with the conversion to our EBV's his growth EBV's were very good (high) they scared me off a bit as I thought they might be a bit extreme and I would wait and see but his EBV's have since moderated a bit and after hearing him mentioned in a positive way on Facebook AI discussion a couple of times I decided to sus him out. He was not used much here and has dropped out of the ABS catalogue but they still had semen which is mostly sold to commercial operations so I got him fairly cheap. I used his grand sire Nichols extra K205 about 10 years ago and really liked what I got.

Yes I was a little worried about the growth too so paired him with some smaller frame matchups (Exceed and Journey daughters). So far I am very impressed and like how they are shedding off compared to some of the others.

We also ended up with a real nice Magnitude bull! We do finish some steers and his marbling epd dropped lower than we like but so far very pleased.
