I checked out many options years ago and settled on the Kenai chest holster - for all the reasons cited above. Another feature is interchangeable holsters using the same harness…so it allows you to carry different handguns (depending on your preference and situation).’ I carry underneath my bino case when elk hunting and it is convenient should I need it. It is also great on its own - handy and at the ready position, doesn’t flop when hiking (or biking) and has great retention. Hope this helps in your decision 338 Mag.
