I've been using these slings for years and really like the comfort they offer. The neoprene shoulder pad distributes the weight of the firearm and the stretch makes the load seem lighter. Every time I buy a new one I notice subtle changes but Butler Creek has not cheapened the sling over the years. The sling I just purchased seems like the same overall quality as one that I've had for about ten years.

I just wanted a simple sling for my Sporter Saiga .223, but I couldn't pass up on the low price for this sling. I'm glad I got it, though. With a little effort, I was able to get the metal rings on the sling (they're quite snug, but a little bees wax made it easier). The sling is very sold, the neoprene section is very comfortable, the non-slip dimples are great for keeping it on your shoulder, and the little bounce that the neoprene give it is actually really nice. I was worried they might quickly lose elasticity, but from the quality feel of the material it should last a long time. For the price, even if it didn't last that long, I'm still quite pleased with it. After reading other reviews for Butler Creek Stretch Slings, though, I'm sure it'll be good for years and years. The Mossy Oak Break-Up (MOBU) pattern is a nice accent. I'm very pleased I picked up this sling.

I bought two of these for my young sons for their hunting rifles. The straps are comfortable and look good. They do not come with swivel fasteners; I thought they did but must have misread the description. I would like the straps to be a bit longer on both ends, i.e. have a bit more play for adjustment. I am 5 11 and wanted them a bit longer. Also, the strap pad does not slide on the strap and is located fairly close to the upper fastener. If you like to loop your strap in your hand as you aim this may not be for you. I tried out one of the rifles and could not get it to do this. For comfort it is very good. For utility when shooting, not as good.

I bought this for my friend as a bday present, its really comfortable worth the price, but it needs to come with the rings to attach to the rifle.

This sling was just as described and is consistent for the price range. It worked well in the field and was comfortable to use. Shipping was quick - I have no complaints.
