Welcome to the sale! It is an exciting time to be in the cattle business as we experience record highs within the industry, and incredible optimism of the future! As a seedstock group, we strive to continue to breed cattle that work in a variety of environments and programs, with a focus on performance and quality - both on paper and on the hoof. When you study this set, you will see that they excel in both fields. We spend hours pouring through pedigrees and records to determine what bulls will be selected for the trip to Laramie at 7,200 feet in the fall. This year’s group had a successful PAP rate of 94%, which is virtually unheard of. We contribute the impressive scores to proper management from birth to weaning, impecable health protocols, and genetics that are capable of withstanding even the toughest of conditions. This year’s set all offer PAP scores of 43 and under. As you begin to evaluate the catalog, you will find some new sire groups such as the Rawhides and Momentums that are impressive on numerous fronts, as well as the popular Bedrocks, Bold Rulers and Arrowheads of years past. This is the deepest set we have had to offer in the last eight years, and we are excited for you to see them on sale day! If you have any questions leading up to the sale about the bulls or the program, be sure to reach out. We enjoy cattle conversations and are looking forward to our annual trip out West. Sincerely, The Powerline Team

Welcome to our annual Magnuson Livestock & Powerline Genetics bull sale, We are fortunate to be in a strong time for the cattle industry. The market is higher than it has ever been, creating an excellent opportunity for cattle producers. With today’s markets, many of us are able to retain heifers, strengthen our herds, and make progress toward paying down ranch debt while conditions are favorable. By keeping heifers, we can build younger cow herds with improved genetics. The Powerline bulls we offer are designed to sire the kind of replacement females any cattleman would be proud to build a cow herd around—productive, functional, and built to last. That said, ranching is never easy. We continue to work around the challenges that weather presents. While we have experienced years of good grass, 2025 brought one of the driest seasons we have ever seen. Even so, it is reassuring to know that with good management and perseverance, we can make it through difficult times. As we move through the remaining winter months, we remain hopeful for the moisture we need.
The Magnuson family would like to sincerely thank all of you for your friendship, trust, and continued support. We appreciate the opportunity to provide quality bulls that fit a wide range of programs and to assist you in marketing your feeder calves. Your loyalty and partnership mean a great deal to us. Thank you, and we look forward to working with you in the year ahead. The Magnuson Family
