I bought this thinking it would work out with a remington 700. It doesn't, but I should have ready the description more closely. I was looking for something more subsantial. Its a bit light weight for my puurposes. It would be good for a Ruger 10-22 or something like that.

This is a simple product, which is a good thing. It is made of 1 1/4" nylon that looks and feels good - no tendency for the edges to fray or loops to be pulled out. It has a good quality polymer/nylon slide adjuster that stays where you put it. And it has real Uncle Mikes matte nickel lock down swivels. The non- slip area works very well; no movement on the shoulder. I use mine "reversed" with the non-slip at the buttstock end and loop to the front, and carry my rifle/shotgun barrel down on my left side (I'm right handed) for better control of it, and faster into action. This sling is very comfortable worn this way. It works well with my backpack straps or harness-type hunting "fanny pack". A quick adjustment, and it's useful as a shooting sling when worn as I do with the loop to the front.

We have used a bunch of these on everything from .17 HMR's to .325 WSM's to great effect. The are small, easy to carry both on and off the firearm. Best of all is the non-slip back that really does it's job. Compared to slings with a neoprene backing these don't bounce as you are walking. Will finish here and order another 4 !

it is a great sling works very well it is easy to use. It has Uncle mike's swivels on it. You can actually roll it and put it in your pocket. At 1 1/4" it is small enough to put anywhere but wide enough to support the rifle.
