The Caldwell Stinger Shooting Rest combines a great looking design, ultimate user functionality and rock solid stability in an affordable rest. Central to the design is the front elevation system. A spring loaded, height adjustment knob allows for fast, one handed course elevation adjustment. The rear fine elevation knob allows for precise target acquisition. The new cutting edge over-molded front and rear supports protect the gun's finish,and provides just the right amount of firmness for rock solid shots.The heavy duty dual metal frame and quick cam locks allow the Stinger's front rest to easily slide forward or backwards and locks in place when the desired length has been achieved. The innovative dual metal frame provides an open central channel with plenty of clearance for detachable magazines as well as lever action guns. The rubber feet will keep the Stinger Shooting Rest in place on a variety of benches providing versatility and ultimate stability.

This rifle/pistol rest is just what I was looking for. Lightweight and inexpensive. It needed a simple strap modification for the the front rest. I used a Wrap it 18" stretch velcro strap. No tools required. I pulled the front rest out of the base and wrapped the strap around the bottom. It slid down into the base and everything lined up perfect. Caldwell should consider making this stand with a strap. Just a suggestion to the maker.

Nice for the price!

Bought this last year and am slightly disappointed.
The distance between the front fork and the butt holder needs to be an inch or two longer to accommodate my rifles. Do you make a longer top piece?

Disappointed

This shooting rest offers great stability and control while zeroing my rifles.

Awesome Product

Used it to zero in a red dot. Did a great job. Will recommend it if you're looking to perfect your handgun.

On point

I bought this this stinger rest a couple months ago only used it, maybe 2 or 3 times at the range in the grass somewhere the gromma came off. I didn't realize it till I got home to try to call customer service. No response sent by email. They said they're not going to warranty it. Horrible, I sent them the receipt and everything and yes was an authorized dealer.Real bad customer serves.I won't buy another one of their products

Horrible customer service part came off

If you have to move a lot of gear in & out of public range every time, & are not a precision shooter, this might be for you.  Easily disassembles to become just a front/pistol rest, or to pack in a large range/duffel bag.. Very light.  No rear height adjustment, as you'd get with rear bags or a fancier model.  Fine for plinking and sighting in low caliber rifles.

Good for a Light Weight Combo Rest

What you need if you have to haul your gear to a public range every time and what to reduce weight. Not as steady as a metal version but works pretty well.  Have this and an older model still in service for yeas at a private club.

Good for a Light Weight Model

Purchased this stand to help zero in my scope.  I havent taken it to the range yet, but wanted to leave a review of how easy it was to assemble. I took my time and followed the instructions after accounting for all of the parts.  Directions were easy to follow.  Once assembled, it seems very sturdy, easy to adjust (front and back) and seems to be a good fit.  Very satisfied so far. The assembly time took me roughly less than an hour...I took breaks for Iced Tea a couple of times.

Very Sturdy.

This is a great stand, especially because of its transportability: easy to take to the shooting range or anywhere else.
But alas, for a bullpup rifle it's just too long. A second hole in the back for the rear support would do the job and make the stand more applicable! Also the rear support's thread is too long and therefore it is too high.
Because I own only a bullpup, I shortened the rear by 10 centimeters, drilled new holes for the rear support & leg and shortened the rear support's thread. It's perfect now!

Great rest, but I had to slightly customize it.

Excellent vice. I was able to site in my lever action Marlin 45-70, MCX Spear, and multiple SBRs. The device is light weight and handles all recoil accordingly to maintain zero

The perfect gun vice

Great little shooting rest. Nice and solid for the price. UPS delivered to the wrong house and lost my package, customer service was awesome and got my replacement out asap.

Great customer service

I have been shooting off "bags" for decades.
When I wanted a true rest, this Stinger came popping up on my search.
Holey Cow... It is awesome!
Air guns, rim fires and even Center fires it performs flawlessly.

Rock solid and exceptional adjustment

This rest is amazing. Works as advertised. One thing I have not seen mention is not only is this great for rifles it's also great for sighting in handguns with red dots. I got frustrated with other rest I have used in the past. The easy adjustment makes this super easy to use.

A must have

Works great for optic zero on handgun and long guns. Price point made it perfect for my needs.

Highly recommend

I bought the Lead Sled SI today and put it together and noticed that the pivot arm was not level with the frame. Not by much and it's still usable. Pivot bracket holes were off. I like it bus they need better quality control.

Good features

I've had my 7 for about 5 years now.  I've had every thing from my marlin .22 to my browng bar 7 rem mag on it. Always worked well. My daughter loves it.

Prefect size for quick range work

I'm happy with the quality but the rear cradle interferes with my cheek piece. The butt of my rifle doesn't sit down in the rear cradle as it should  this creates a loss of stability.

Nice rest except for one thing

Great product!  Helps with younger kids to learn. Recommended.

Matrix

This product is well designed and packaged. It's versatility should please a lot of enthusiasts.

Versatility

The front portion drops down with light pressure. I have to hold the knob in order to keep the elevation in place.

The front rest drops with minimal weight

Good rest for the money. Not heavy duty but convenient to lug around

Good for the cost

Very well built rest, lets me feel the recoil and wont screw up my optics!

optic saver

Best shooting rest  ! Light weight ! Easy transportation

Excelent

I purchased this to use with pistol grip equipped rifles but found it will not fit that style of rifle. It works well with my other rifles and is well made.

Does not work well with AR/AK style rifles.

Love the sturdiness yet versatility of the rifle rest. It certainly is a much better quality than the plastic model I own. You get what you pay for.

Very Sturdy

It's a great rifle rest.  Strong and sturdy.  I like how I can fold it narrower to fit in toolbox drawer easier.

Great Rifle Rest

Looks great on paper. Wouldn't know how it operates. Ordered over a week ago and it still hasn't shipped?

I'm sure it's great?

No doubt it reduces recoil. My issue is the butt of the gun is not so secure and slight movement is magnified; There need to be a fi to secure the butt of the gun from wiggling.

Lead Sled Solo

Kinda disappointed. I know it is inexpensive but all that needed to be done was add a little thickness or support to the base. It flexed way too much. Put some wooden stiffeners underneath the base and it helped but I wouldn?t recommend this product.

Too flexible.

Excellent product. Easy to set up and worked very well! Fast shipping and great communication.
