Most Helpful Positive Review Caldwell Caldwell Lead Sled DFT 2
I am a novice at using this rest! The adjustments on the rest for windage and elevation moved smoothly and were easy to access. I did have problems as I went to snug the rifle into my shoulder. There is soft rubber installed in the bottom of the rest's stock well as well as behind it. So snugging the rifle to the rear results in it sinking into the bottom rubber resulting in a change of elevation on the hold you just had, Definitely different than using a rear sandbag rest! That was the down side. The upside is I was able to shoot work-up loads for a 7mm mag and 300 Wby mag. 16 rnds out of the...

Good... sort of.

by Drew, Verified Owner from NJ, United States Written on November 8, 2024
Got this to help zero my rifles and shotguns. It's probably fine for smaller caliber rifles. Lots of lateral play in the cradle, even with the rubber strap applied, so getting a repeatable followup shot still requires some skill and effort. The cushion helps with recoil but creates further play, as well.
Pros:
  • None
Cons:
  • Lots of play
Best Used for:
  • Small caliber rifle
Would recommend: Yes

Very happy with the purchase and does exactly what it says, with four bags of shot, 25 lbs apiece does excellent job of keeping movement to a bear minimum, good quality for the cost. (Ruger .338)

Caldwell lead sled shooting platform Dft-2

by Taxslave, from CA, United States Written on May 30, 2021
It delivers as promised. I purchased the aldwell lead sled shooting platform dft-2 to stabilize and sight in a couple of rifle scopes. It made it very stable to shoot repeatable groups than with the aid of a spotter scope observe the groups make the elevation and wind age adjustments to zero in the scope on the rifle.
Best Used for:
  • Sighting in scopes
Would recommend: Yes

Great product well made

by G. Green, from TX, United States Written on May 7, 2021
Takes all the human errors out of play when testing your loads and zeroing your rifle. Great price point from OpticsPlanet and I’m sure I will get many year of use out of it. I was impressed by the speed in which I received it fast delivery!

Much better than the first model!

by Larry Lynch, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on July 24, 2018
This new Lead Sled solved a problem I experienced with the previous model. I found the elevation adjustment somewhat difficult to adjust in the earlier version - but not so with this one. It's also more stable w/o as much weight added to the base. I use the lead shot bags I once used as ballast in my SCUBA vest. Only a few are required and the thing is solid as a rock. I recommend it highly.
Pros:
  • More Stable
  • Better elevation controls
Cons:
  • It's not free
Best Used for:
  • sighting-in
  • Testing accuracy not marksmanship
Would recommend: Yes
