i currently run a triad tactical and am currently looking for a replacement. I do hunt with my rig (13lbs ish) and would like something comfortable for hiking. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks
 
I only use Blue Force Gear sling. Their claim to fame is they have never had one come apart whether in service or otherwise. Lifetime guarantee.
 
I use the Rifles Only carbine sling, but you might prefer the precision rifle version by RO with bungee. The bungee does make carrying a heavy gun a bit easier. The RO bungee is thicker than the Armageddon Gear one.

I prefer the VTAC padded without bungee for AR15, but my wife prefers the Way of the Gun sling which I'm okay with but I run now because I want our slings and guns to be interchangeable. The VTAC is better IMO than the WotG or Vickers/BFG. I know Jason Falla is a fan of the Armageddon Gear bungee for AR15 work.

Another vote for the Rifles Only carbine sling. It's simple and just works. Plus I like the fact I don't need a specific sling for my bolt action or AR's. Same sling works great for all of them.
 
I don't have much experience with many different types, but I did use an Armageddon and I liked it a lot. I think it spoiled me because now I don't even look at slings without a bungee built into them. Very comfortable. I plan to pick one up for myself here pretty soon.

Using a Magpul MS4 for my lighter/small guns though and it works. Just not as nice.
 
I ordered the RO bungee. This one was a tough choice... So many designs some very similar some very different. I did notice Rifles Only offers a pad and an accessory tail for the sling, anybody using the accessories?
