Customers are dissatisfied with the fit of the gun support. For example, they mention that it didn't fit between the upper and lower, it didn’t accommodate an AR rifle easily, and the hand guard wouldn't work. That said, they say the base is a bit large and the rear of the saddle where the stock sits can be a little narrow. That being said, some complain that the length is not adjustable and that the front pad doesn't take larger sized stocks.

Nice, But I Don't Think "Ideal For Magnum Rifles & Slug Guns"

Nice, But I Don't Think "Ideal For Magnum Rifles & Slug Guns"
This is my first experience with the Caldwell Lead Sled 3. I'm impressed. At $139.99 (Amazon price at the time of this review; fairly similar prices "on the street") it's not unreasonably priced. As with all the products I've bought from Caldwell/Battenfeld the quality has been top-notch (unlike some other reviewers I've read both here on Amazon and elsewhere, I've not had QC issues). Speaking of Caldwell/Battenfeld, the company's customer support/techincal support has been - again, for me - first class when I needed to call (which has been "not often"). I like how the Lead Sled 3 has moved from the "bean bag" rests of its predecessor to a rubberized plastic approach (otherwise, as best as I can tell, there is no other difference between this new model and the previous one).Assembly is relatively straight-forward, but even though I've assembled several Lead Sled DFTs I still stumbled with this one and wound up attaching the weight tray three times to get the orientation and bolts/washers correct. Yes, the directions could be clearer, but frankly I chalk up any difficulty I had assembling this Lead Sled 3 to operator head space and timing.So while I'm impressed I'm not totally impressed. Frankly, it's a fairly light-weight rig (even with a couple of lead-filled Caldwell Lead Sled Shot Carrier Bag, 4 pack (verified purchase)) so I am not buying the "ideal for Magnum rifles and slug guns" claim. For me, this is either a field rig (where carrying weight matters) or a rig for lower-powered/lower-caliber guns. This is what I use it for.For most needs (home shooting, larger calibers, etc.) I much prefer the Caldwell 336677 Lead Sled Dft 2 (or its predecessor) over this Lead Sled 3. Yes, it's $60 more expensive, but I think it's worth every penny (as an aside, the DFT is still selling at its $199.99 price point (or higher), while the new DFT 2 can be found "on the street" for around $150).Again, not saying the Lead Sled 3 isn't worth it. It is. Well constructed, feature-rich, and priced reasonably, it's a good deal. But I think shooters (especially if "bigger calibers are better" is true) will be disappointed. For most, I think the Lead Sled DFT (or DFT 2) is a better choice. Anyway, I've uploaded a few photos comparing this Lead Sled 3 with the new Lead Sled DFT 2 (two photos show a length comparison; one shows the correct assembly of the weight plate to the frame from the underside; the fourth shows the adjustable tray (not found on the DFT series)). Hope they help.In the end, nice but not great. 4 stars.
