[QUOTE="Ninering62, post: 1951235, member: 114278"] Yes I'd have to go along with ya there, 7-8lb gun w/2lb for scope set up & a good strap ( something I didn't even consider a factor when I was young & healthy ) now the claw sling does a decent job carrying a 9lb pushin 10lb rifle w/ a 2lb scope on my back while havin to " old school " drag my deer out of the Florida pine tree rows & undergrowth full of briars lookin to trip & entangle at every foot step about 300yds in the dark a tough job. The sling did such a noticeably helpful difference in what I would have had to contend with " PITFA " cheap slings I'd had on other guns it did make me reflect back on that issue in some past hunts where long hikes & heavy rifles & shotguns & either havin no sling or whatever cheap sling I could find made my choice in how to use a good sling helps make it less arduous.
