Caldwell Lead Sled Weight Bag Standard Shooting Rest Sand Weight Bag
Add stability to Lead Sled rests – holds up to 25lb shot
The Caldwell Lead Sled Weight Bag (Large) is basically a heavy-duty fill bag made to sit inside Caldwell Lead Sled shooting rests and add extra weight so your setup stays rock solid during shooting. It’s designed to take either sand or lead shot, and once filled it helps reduce movement from recoil by keeping the rest firmly planted on the bench. The bag itself is made from tough fabric with reinforced handles so you can carry it easily to and from the range, and it’s built specifically to fit Lead Sled models like the Solo, DFT, and similar versions. It comes unfilled, so you choose how heavy you want it depending on what you put inside.
