[QUOTE="DSheetz, post: 2843968, member: 91783"] As with every other item we use in our everyday life not all slings are created equal, they pretty much all have good aspects as well as bad points each of them will have their place and better uses for some things then for other things. If I'm going to be covering a lot of ground on my feet even a light weight rifle will start biting into my shoulder with a narrow sling, A wide sling will disperse the weight but if it isn't flexible from side to side it will chafe on your collarbone or neck, a wide sling that is flexible from side to side won't chaff on you but may not have any gripping ability and will constantly be needing to be repositioned. I ended up with a good sling that was made of Cardura but it was always slipping so I had a can of spray tool handle coating that I sprayed a couple of coats on the inside area of the shoulder pad with. I have used it for several years, carried it many miles and used it nearly every day for at least 10 years and now have had it on three different rifles, the point being no matter which sling you buy you may end up making a few modifications to it so that it will better fit your needs, but then I am seldom completely satisfied with any out of the box product and will make changes to them after a while and using them so they better suit my usages of them.
