[QUOTE="charliewhisky, post: 2296323, member: 26716"] Ching Sling for accuracy. I'm getting older and the M700LR in 30-06 is heavier than an M14. I sling left shoulder, muzzle up, if somewhat sure I will have time to react. I carry sling assisted and at the ready if stalking in cover. I rest the rifle across my right shoulder, muzzle pointing back, with my right hand on the grip if I want to be ready and am still hunting for any length of time. The weight is on my shoulders and it comes off the shoulder and into the left hand quickly. I carry locked and loaded, with the safety off, unless I am climbing, fording, or in a slippery situation. I would have lost at least half the deer I have taken if I had to chamber a round. I would have lost a quarter if I had to take time to release the safety. I hunt alone from the ground and I figure that if I am pointing the rifle at myself, I should get shot for being an idiot. No tape. If I think there might be a problem I open the bolt and drain. I am supposed to know where the barrel is at all times and have not ever had to unplug a barrel since VN. [/QUOTE]
