Having to use a sling to steady the rifle or worse yet, sitting down and using a sling?
How are you going to still hunt with a sling wound around your arm and hit your target at 300 yards if you can't see over the sage brush because you're sitting?
Back in my day we didn't waste time with sights or slings and such crutches, we were busy making our own blackpowder so we could feed the family.
See, I can do it too.
Don't feed the trolls
