Best Answer

Since Angus cattle have been made so very popular in the United States, the size really varies. There are Angus cows that can grow to a frame size of 7 to 9 (which is the largest score of frame size there is), and the smallest size that an Angus can grow to, which are not considered low-line or miniature, is around a frame size of 3 to 4.

As far as actual size (in inches) that frame scores are, the Frame score 7 to 9 measurement for a mature cow is 54 to 58 inches at the shoulder. Frame 3 to 4 is 46 to 48 inches at the shoulder.

As far as weight is concerned, an Angus cow can grow between 1200 to 1800 lbs. Occasionally cows may get upwards of up to and over 2000 lbs.
