[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 2079067, member: 54178"] rock, I'm buying some flush cup swivels and sling studs for my Browning X-Bolt Pro. I will replace the existing studs with flush cups. Then I will put more flush cups on the left side of the fore arm and stock so I can carry the rifle flat on my back using this special sling that permits a "biathlon carry". I can use either restricted term cups or 360 degree cups. I'll have to unstitch my sling to install the sling studs and have my shoe repair shop re-stitch with a bar tack on the nylon webbing sling. Likely all cups will be the restricted rotation type to avoid a twisted sling. ** Be careful when installing "restricted turn" cups that they are permitting turning ONLY in the direction you need and then are aligned properly before the epoxy dries. If they end up restricting turning in a needed area because they were not properly aligned they [I]cannot [/I]be easily removed to correct them! (Don't ask me how I know.;o) Eric [/QUOTE]
