Burnett Livestock & Realty's James Cochrane said the best of the feeder cattle made 330c/kg, with prices fluctuating between 315c/upwards.
"The market hung on well considering the cattle numbers being offered at the moment," Mr Cochrane said.
He said the sale was well supported by store buyers from the Downs looking for cattle to put on oats, while Central Queensland producers were also absorbing some lines.
"Due to the onset of winter in these parts the cattle have a lot of frame and are not weighing much so they are making ideal buying," he said.
Cattle were drawn from Chinchilla, Gogango, Sarina, Mount Larcom, Miriam Vale, Rules Beach, Oyster Creek, Rosedale, Gin Gin, Bundaberg, Maryborough, Tiaro, Woolooga, Goomeri, Booubyjan, Murgon, Kingaroy, Mundubbera, Eidsvold, Gayndah, Cracow and all local areas.
