[QUOTE="Air gator, post: 1326310, member: 20755"] I found this link from the Angus Association. [url=https://www.angus.org/Nce/Carcass.aspx]https://www.angus.org/Nce/Carcass.aspx[/url] I hope it will help you. Gardiner Angus does more research on carcass traits than any other organization. They have a lot of videos on Youtube. I think I heard that you have to have 7 calves scanned to get .47 accuracy. Gardiner really dominates on marbling and carcass traits and rely on genetic testing and data more than any other breeder. There seems to be a great divide in the Angus breed...the Gardiners and others who believe that it's all about carcass and other breeders who say that they get paid by the pound. The latter also use the argument "If the cattle can't walk what good is marbling?" I think there has to be a balance...but nearly every beef bull catalog has a report on marbling and carcass traits and how important they are. [/QUOTE]
