I have several cartridge slings for my rifles and shotguns. This was my first and last time I will use anything from Butler Creek. I had recently added a new beautiful Tikka Stainless and Leupold scope to my hunting arsenal. With Caribou season coming, I decided to take it out for the first time. The sling I ordered didn't arrive in time so I ordered this as a substitute. About an hour of using the sling walking down a ridge, it gave way. The metal slide had deformed and allowed the webbing to slip through. I watched as my brand new rifle with freshly zeroed Leupold tumble down the rocky ridge. Now I get to take my rifle in to have it recrowned and get the burs/gouges removed from the barrel.

sling is o.k.a.y. for the price but it came with missing part.
i only had 2 "sliders(buckle)" (metal part uses to tie down) on the string instead of 3 (needed one on each ends for swivel + 1 for lenght adjustment). luckly, i had few extra sliders from other sling that i don't use anymore.

Cartridge holder works. i holds the ammo tight.

i didn't have time to try it on my rifle.. if it fails as the other guy posted, i will give you an update. (maybe i better stitch it after the swivel buckle before it fails... haha..)
