I've been using an old one I've had for probably 20 years and it's been left in the rain too many times. I'm looking to replace it with a new better version to use during load development but haven't really handled many other than the one I've got.

Recommendations on ones you've used and why you like or dislike them would be greatly appreciated.
 
Not best since it’s not meant to be held down by sandbags, but very good for transport due to weight; Caldwell stinger. It’s more of a metal cradle shooting support. I use it for zeroing in irons and optics.

I know someone who uses the DFT lead sled 2, that’s nice it has compartments to use sand bags; but maybe they might benefit from wheeling a picnic wagon to the range so they don’t need to carry it.

agree with stinger. the plusses and minuses as noted. it isnt the most stable when you pull the trigger, but its easy to transport and at least on the front end before you go "bang" it works
