3D Animal Targets · Ranked by CareScore™

Best Lightweight 3D Targets

Actual product weight, 20 pounds or less. Shipping weight does not count. GlenDel and Rinehart publish no actual weight, so they sit out rather than borrow an Amazon number. That leaves the Delta 16-pound pair — Intruder and Challenger — which is enough to ship the list and not enough to invent the rest.

Who this is for: Shooters who drag the animal to the yard and back, and want a verified actual weight at or under 20 lb.

The short answer

The best 3d animal target for portable is the Delta McKenzie Intruder Deer with a CareScore of 85.7/100 at $119.99, ahead of the Delta McKenzie Challenger Deer (82.4).

Ranked by the published CareScore v1.1.8 methodology with weights re-tuned for this buyer — June 2026 data.

The cheapest full-body deer Delta still sells. Thirty-one inches tall, forty long, a single replaceable FlexFoam vital, IBO rings on that core, and a printed 300–350 fps window. Sixteen pounds on the PDP additional-info line — light enough to drag to the fence. Stakes in the box. You are buying a body you keep and a $39.99 core (#50461) you will replace.

Excellent$149.99

CareScore

Delta's middle backyard buck: a bigger rack than the Intruder, same $39.99 core idea, same 16-pound additional-info weight, same 300–350 fps print. Maker height is 32 inches. Some retailers list 41 inches, which is the maker's body length, not the height — we kept the maker's 32 and wrote the clash down. Still live. Still one face on the vital.
