As with any breeds there'll be big variations but the native breeds like AA and HE mature at lower weights than continentals (550 vs. 700kg) and the KO is also a few % lower (48/49 vs. 53/54).

But tis worth emphasising - these are textbook figures and the real numbers will vary according to breed lines, feeding, weather, Brexit, Trump, etc.
