    Garry Sutton a culler in the NW and a mate of Scribe's told us many moons ago it was a classic way of not shooting deer and he shot most of his on the run. Also he never used a sling for the same reason.It also stops you having to worry about the crazy notion of half cock bolt etc nonsense.

    Dam true. Slings have no place on a hunting rifle IMO.

    I'm learning. But I do find a sling good when carrying two rifles, and I suspect it will be handy when trekking in. When I hunt the sling is usually off.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    +1 use the sling tramping in and back out, (roads, DOC tracks) essential kit for me, never used when hunting in the bush
    While I might not be as good as I once was, Im as good once as I ever was!

    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
