    I imagine as the base is well over 4 euro/kg that he be up around 3.5 in factory after that it depends on his weight

    You say he`s gone heavy so around 950kg is a great weight for an Angus.
    @ 4yr old he should still grade well and fetch around €3.50 / kg
    But his dead weight would be about 500kg so that should see him worth roughly
    500 X 3.5 = €1750 tops

    What shape is he, like is he throwing any U grade calves?
    If he has the shape he is worth over 2k, but if he is only an easy calving 'dairy farmers' bull then he is only worth about 17-1800e

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.
