Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Rifle slings, nice set up, ideas ?

My Butler Creek Mountain sling weighs 3 oz. The 1" Montana sling is 5 1/2 oz. I guess it depends on how you look at it. On one hand it is almost twice as heavy, and on the other hand 2 1/2 oz isn't a deal killer. I have both and used to always reach for the Mountain sling. But lately the Montana sling gets used more. Being able to use it as a more effective shooting sling is worth 2 1/2 oz to me.

I don't like overly heavy wide padded slings made of either synthetic or leather.
