Rifle sling for hunting

[Davyalabama]

I run an old style M1 Garand sling.

I've been using the Brownell's Latigo sling for many years and will use nothing else. They adjust super easy for carrying or shooting. The problem with a sling that is too wide is that they sometimes want to slip off your shoulder.

Thanks for starting this thread.

I use the Ching sling on my rifles. It can be used as a carry strap, and it does an amazing job of stabilizing the rifle for an offhand shot.

Slogan is the best sling I have ever used to date.

My go to sling for decades was the Latigo sling from Brownells until I found the Slogan sling. It's my go to sling now!

I think it's the Ultraflex rifle and crossbow, 49.95$ model.

I have both models. I perfer the magnum version for my pursuits.
But I'm 6'1" 215 lbs and all my rigs are 9-12 lbs customs. I live in Idaho and hunt the western states.

At 1 time Uncle Mikes made a sling with a with a rubbery coating sowed inside 1 end near the detachable swivel. It is the only sling I have used for years on several of my rifles, Shotguns and Muzzleloader.
I have a military style adjustable nylon sling on my 338WM. It was slippery on shoulder, I cut and sowed a piece of suede leather to the inside of the sling where it rested on my shoulder, Ended the problem.

Some older forum member, May remember Herter's old hunting coats, Had a button sowed on the top of the shoulders to keep leather slings from slipping off your shoulder.

 

[RH300UM]

Yes I do remember those coats!
But they sucked for carrying a pack or hiking in general!
Yes I had one at one point

I've got some mags also.
They will definitely carry a heavy rifle.!

Need to find another sling for hunting rifle. Not looking for the traditional leather padded sling. Looking for a tactical style, adjustable with some elastic to it. I have a TAB Gear on 1 now and it's ok but I don't think they make it anymore. Lots of new companies these days building shooting bags and PRS stuff so wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions? Likes, don't likes, etc.
Thanks

"Ultimate Firearm Sling" by Specialty Outdoor Prodects would seem like it fits your criteria list almost exactly. It's now $46 on Amazon.

Thanks Phil, I thought that may have been it. Though, I'm thinking that the Long Magnum may be what I need according to their suggested sizing chart and my front swivel is on the barrel rather than on the stock! memtb
