I've never actually purchased a hunting rifle sling directly, they've come on used guns I've purchased.
This sling will be going on a Howa 1500 in 6.5Creedmoor.

Anyone have any experience with these?

I use Browning X-Cellerator slings on all of my rifles and shotguns. They're comfortable, offer one hand adjustment, rides on my shoulder like it should, and the easy adjustment makes it easy to use for shooting.

I won't hunt without one.


83% of all statistics are made up.

I got a neoprene sling. I didn't think it would hold up but it has. I like it cause there's a little give in it. Like your rifle has a shock absorber when it's over your shoulder.

I had the Quake Claw on my old Benelli. It was an good sling. I sold the gun and the sling is still in my closet. I did like the nylon swivels. Now I use the Viking Tactical sling. I like being able to carry my rifle across my chest. It's a better sling for walking in the woods in my opinion.

Safari Sling. Keeps my weapon in front of me at all times. I have 'em for every rifle or swap to them when I go to the woods.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

I bought a ML from Atoler a year or so ago and it came with a Claw sling. This was the first one I've owned, and it's now my favorite. I love that it doesn't slip at all. Anytime in the future that I've got to buy a sling it'll be a Claw.

That's pretty much the exact one I have on my 257. Don't get any of those fabric ones with the sticky material. They r junk.

I bought my first claw sling of anger, I was climbing down from a ladder stand after getting caught in the rain earlier my sling was wet and my gun spun around and smacked the crap out the ladder, put a good I'm scratch down the barrel. I went looking for a sling that wouldn't slide around and bought a claw now I have one on every rifle. It's comfortable and stays on my shoulder wet or dry,don't try and slide around or off my shoulder when I walk

Vero Vellini Air Cushion or Butler Creek Alaskan, both are neoprene, both are great, prefer the vero vellini by a small margin. Have a couple Claws also, their good but don't stretch like the neoprene's do.

Most all my rifles have "The Claw" on them. I like them because of the no slip and comfort of them

I've used the Claw but I like the Sloganoutdoors better. It holds better than the Claw. You could even split it and wear it like backpack straps when dragging a deer or doing anything where you absolutely don't want your rifle coming off.

As mentioned already combos of the butler creek neoprene and the claw.

My fav tho is a much older hand crafted leather one that belonged to my father with some 'deer artwork' on it that's on an old remmy 742 carbine. The leather is very supple and well-handled and has prob been carried for nearly 50yrs.

I have butler creek slings on everything and love them. 2 things mandatory on my rifles (besides a good scope and rings) is a butler creek sling and a cartridge holder on the buttstock. Just preference

Montana Sling Company bridle leather slings for guns I won't be hiking all day with. Much better to me for gaining stability for off-hand shots. Butler Creek for turkey gun and have a couple for rifles to use when I'm doing serious walking and will have a stand or tripod to steady aim.

My biggest issue with a lot of the slings I see is the use of plastic for the hardware. Plastic can break and it will happen at the worst possible time. I won't use a sling with plastic parts. I have been using a couple of old Uncle Mike's padded slings for over 30 years most of the time and like them. I finally found a neoprene sling with metal hardware made by Allen this year and will see if I like it. For my "pretty" guns I like to use a Brownells Latigo sling. It's essentially a leather super sling type sling and it looks good, even though it will slip on your shoulder a little.

I usually carry a rifle in my hands when walking to my stand and use a pull up rope in my treestands. I also like to take the sling off when I'm in a shooting house and like the quick detach swivels. I don't like the newer style swivels I see on a lot of the slings like the Claw.

R. H. - that sling you posted looks like a good one except in the pictures on their site it looks like the buckle is plastic. Is this correct?

I like the butler creek slings, comfortable and durable.


If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.

I use Butler Creek. I like the grip when it is on your shoulder and the neoprene rides better than leather.

I am a carry my rifle in my hands kinda guy or better on a pack, scabbard on a horse, etc. if I am out west. I don't care which kind as long as I can adjust it quickly on the fly. I take all the slack out of it when I get in a shooting house or up a tree hanging on a hook so it isn't dangling or hanging loose.. A lot of times I don't mess with a rope to pull up my gear I just adjust sling so it will go around bandoliero style and climb up the ladder or sticks. When I get up there I take the slack out so I don't have a sling dangling.

I have a couple of the butler creek that will hold 4 rifle cartridges I like them a lot. I also have an adjustable browning sling. It's not as "comfortable " but I like being able to adjust the slack when not carrying it. So you won't hang it on stuff

I like to take my sling off on stand; so something with quick release swivels like the Outdoor Connection Super Sling works for me.

Got several Claws. They work as advertised

Wiley made a good point on the safari sling to keep the rifle out front

But my favorite? Handmade thumbhole sling

I picked one of these up on your recommendation and I like it. It is really nice on the heavy barreled rifles and like you said the gun is at the ready. It is comfortable with a backpack as well.

Thank You!

The OC Super Sling is my go-to. I never take mine off my rifle, so our reasons are different.

I just like the fact that it's simple, and quiet.

I have a couple of Brownells latigo slings. Its basically a leather version of a super sling. No plastic to break.

You're welcome! I remember recommending to someone on here and told them that I'd buy it from them at their cost, including shipping, if they didn't like it. But then, I've recommended them to everybody looking for a sling.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

I'm taking your word for it, R.H. Clark, cause I just ordered one. I watched the demo video and it's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
