Caldwell Claymore Solo Clay Target Thrower

• Foot-pedal operation: The throwing arm is tensioned and released in one smooth step, keeping hands away from the launch path and making solo clay practice safer and simpler.
• Auto-reset throwing arm: After each launch, the arm returns to the loading position automatically, so the next target can be loaded quickly without manually resetting the mechanism.
• Toolless angle adjustment: Launch angle changes can be made on the spot, allowing a wider variety of target presentations for more realistic shotgun training.
• Supports mini, midi and standard clays: The thrower handles multiple clay sizes and can launch singles or doubles, giving one compact unit broader practice value.
• Folding-leg design: The Claymore Solo collapses for easier transport and storage, which makes it more practical for range trips and home use.

About the Caldwell Accessories Series

Caldwell Accessories covers a broad range of practical shooting gear built around range use, firearms handling, and target practice. Within the Caldwell lineup, this series sits as a utility-focused family rather than a specialized optics or firearm component range, bringing together products intended to make training sessions more efficient, organized, and repeatable. The emphasis is typically on straightforward operation, durable materials, and designs that solve common range problems without adding unnecessary complexity.

In practice, the series spans equipment for target work, support gear, and other shooting-related accessories, reflecting Caldwell’s focus on range equipment and firearms use. That makes the series relevant to recreational shooters, clubs, and hunters who want dependable tools for practice rather than decorative add-ons. For products in this family, the design philosophy is generally centered on field-ready durability, easy setup, and transportable construction, which suits repeated use at outdoor ranges and informal shooting grounds. In the case of target-launching equipment, that translates into simple controls, robust metal construction, and layouts that help keep practice moving with less interruption.

About the Caldwell Claymore Solo Clay Target Thrower

The Caldwell Claymore Solo Clay Target Thrower is built for shooters who want a compact manual launcher that is easy to use without giving up variety in target presentation. Its defining feature is the foot-pedal system, which tensions the spring and launches the clay in one motion. That layout keeps hands clear of the throwing arm and removes the awkward manual reset process associated with many traditional throwers, making it especially well suited to solo sessions and casual group shooting.

Another practical advantage is the auto-reset arm, which returns to the loading position after each shot. This speeds up the rhythm of practice and makes the launcher less tiring to operate over longer sessions. The Claymore Solo also offers toolless launch-angle adjustment, so target paths can be changed quickly from straightforward outgoing birds to much steeper presentations. That flexibility is useful for building shotgun skills beyond a single repetitive angle.

The throwing arm is designed to work with standard, midi, and mini clay targets, and it can launch singles as well as doubles. This gives the thrower broader training value for informal trap-style shooting and general clay practice. Its steel construction supports repeated outdoor use, while the folding legs reduce the storage footprint and make transport easier between the garage, vehicle, and shooting ground.

About Caldwell

Caldwell is a shooting-supplies brand focused on equipment for shooting ranges and firearms use. Its catalog covers a wide span of practical gear, including electronic hearing protection, shooting rests, targets, and ballistic chronographs, reflecting a strong emphasis on products that support training, testing, and range convenience. The brand also offers steel targets, target-launching equipment, and magazine loaders, showing particular depth in accessories used around live-fire practice rather than in the firearm itself.

Several Caldwell product families are well established within that range, including the Lead Sled shooting rests and the E-Max hearing protection line. Caldwell became part of Battenfeld Technologies, a business that Smith & Wesson announced it was acquiring in December 2014. In practical terms, Caldwell is known for producing purpose-built range gear designed to make shooting sessions more controlled, repeatable, and easier to manage.
