CALDWELL AR500 RIMFIRE DUELING TREE$177.56
Availability: In Stock
The Caldwell AR500 Dueling Tree is a reactive steel target system built for shooters who want immediate, satisfying feedback at the range. Six pivoting targets spin left and right off a center post with each hit, making it ideal for friendly competition, skill development, or solo practice with handguns and centerfire rifles. The entire assembly—targets, post, and hangers—is forged from AR500 steel, a material tough enough to absorb thousands of rounds without degradation, so you're buying a target that'll outlast your ammunition budget.
This dueling tree stands 54 inches tall on a 24×24 inch base and features an adjustable angle base that lets you dial in the target's responsiveness on uneven ground or for different rifle calibers and shooting distances. That flexibility means it performs equally well at a backyard setup or a commercial range, and you can tune how aggressively the targets swing based on your load and distance. The six 6-inch diameter targets give you plenty of surface area to ring steel, and the 2-piece center post design spreads impact forces to minimize wear at the stress points.
Caldwell rates the dueling tree for handgun shooting at 10 yards, .223 Rem at 100 yards, and .308 Win at 200 yards—a practical range envelope that covers most hunting and tactical rifle scenarios. The AR500 steel construction means no splash-back hazard; you're getting clean, predictable hits every time. If you're tired of paper targets that shred or need fast audible/visual confirmation of hits during live fire, this is the steel target system that earns its place at the range.

Yes. The adjustable angle base is designed specifically for uneven terrain, allowing you to level and orient the targets reliably regardless of the ground surface.
AR500 steel is engineered for durability. Caldwell rates this dueling tree for a lifetime of trouble-free use, meaning the steel won't degrade or require replacement with normal shooting practice within the recommended distance and caliber limits.
Yes. The dueling tree design—with six reactive targets that pivot on impact—is built for head-to-head competition. Each shooter can track their hits as the targets respond, making it ideal for friendly match-ups or skill challenges on the range.
