rifle sling

[gman1]

I bought a new rifle and am looking at purchasing a sling and the more I look the more confused I get as to what would be a good sling?
Any assistance the group could give me would be very much appreciated.
Thanks

..the only sling I'll use.

I looked at the web site and the slings look great. Does the 1 1/4 sling have any padding on the shoulder or maybe isn't necessary?

No need..nor the 1"

I really like the Boonie Packer sling, keeps your hands free for using binoculars while the gun is still in a ready position. I use my binoculars a lot, and never liked having to sling my rifle on my shoulders every time to free up both hands.

Yep, very versatile and hell for stout.

3rd vote for the Montana sling.

I have the Slogan Sling (Ultraflex model) that I have been using for the last 3 years. Doesn't slide off your shoulder, and has a lifetime guarantee. You can see them at www.sloganoutdoors.com

BC Mountain Sling.

All the other slings are great I'm sure. I bought one of these from the two Marine vets who own the company here in ABQ, NM:

Couldn't be happier with it. It's made in the USA and very high quality. You can buy different attachments for all your rifles and just buy one sling.

A Montana Sling and a Kifaru Gunbearer work for me.

I like the Montana's and Vero Vellini's. If I am hunting with a pack on I rarely have a sling on, and carry in a Kifaru Gunbearer.

I have this same sling on both of my hunting rifles. Best sling I've ever used. Doesn't fall off of your shoulder, easy to secure the rifle in "backpack mode." The stretchyness of the sling makes it very good for using the sling to help steady the rifle off-hand.

Very good product

I was just going to ask about these. They look pretty cool. I like how the straps can be split so it can be worn on both shoulders as well as grippy material that keeps it from sliding off your shoulder.

I am also a REALLY big fan of the Kifaru Gun Bearer if you have a back pack.

You guys using the Montana Slings, are you using the 1.25" model or the 1"?

I use the 1" on my lighter rigs...but honestly they're both comfortable.

1" so far for me. It fits well in the gunbearer top strap.
