Can calves be turned out earlier than 2 weeks after the 2nd dose?

Maybe: It depends what kind of ground they’re being turned out onto. In order to allow the development of a protective level of immunity cattle should be protected from sources of lungworm infection for a period of 2 weeks after their 2nd dose. In order to do this the only sure way is for animals that have been reared indoors to remain housed, and suckling calves to remain with their dams for this period.
