Or use the Accuracy International biathlon sling. I have their regular sling and it works great. You can google the product and see other images of it.

How is the biathlon sling different then the regular tab sling? I'm thinking it is only carried on the back and not out front or over a shoulder?

Re: Best Slings for AICS 2.0?
I have both. If I was shooting a class or something like a comp I would get a normal AI sling. The biathlon sling does not really allow for good lockup. It is how ever great for carrying the heavy ass rifles if you are going to a stand to hunt.

AI sling over a Tab sling?</div></div>
Sorry I was not clear. I was speaking about the style of sling more than the brand. For Comp shooting I would go with a standard style sling in a brand of your choice.

Hey really look around. At Shot Show this year I saw a couple of new designs that looked to have potential. Can not remember the brands or makes but lots of options out there

Re: Best Slings for AICS 2.0?
We just finished up the video for your new RAS sling, it should be up any time.
You might consider waiting until you can get a look at it to see if that might fit your requirements. I think it's the best sling we've come out with yet for the tactical/match type discipline.

Hmmm that is interesting and I happen to have one laying around that I am not using. Wasn't sure how it would do with a heavier rifle but I'm liking the idea.

OK I have until April till I really need one. I assume I could get it with HK hooks to work with the AICS 2.0 and the AX?

Re: Best Slings for AICS 2.0?
Yes you can, that will be no problem at all.
I have to take a few more still pictures of the sling and then we'll get it up on the site.
