Just another savage...

So, here we have a basic savage 10 FCP, it's got the obligatory krylon paint as well. Guess it's got a bi-pod too. She looks good I think. My only question is... How do I sling this beast. Clearly, the classic style sling is insufficient. No matter how I try, it is unwieldy and uncomfortable as hell.

Ok, so maybe it has a little more than krylon and a bi-pod... For the detail junkies that need neat lists with bullets... GO.

Stuff on the rifle:

<ul style="list-style-type: disc">[*]Savage 10-FCP Action [*]Factory .308 Win Barrel [*]Liberty Suppressors Freedom [*]SWFA 10x glass [*]Choate Tool Tactical Stock [*]Harris S-type Bipod with Podlock [*]CDI Bottom metal [/list]

And yeah... Really, I need to know how to sling it, my current solution is get the barrel chopped to 18" and put on a lighter stock, that choate stock is like... 5 lbs probably. Anyway, thanks for looking, and if you have gone through the same sling issues, do tell how you dealt with it.
 
Re: Just another savage...

Well, my concern with the sling stems from the fact that I would like to compete in some of the matches like the Mammoth Sniper Challenge coming up in January, so I need to be able to wear a pack with said sling setup, and I don't think that biathlon setups work with a pack on. I could be thinking of the wrong thing though. I am thinking I may just have to run the TAB sling, a friend of mine has all the delicious TAB goodies. I should see if his sling works for it, that may be what I need.
 
Re: Just another savage...

Gladly reporting that the TAB gear sling is just what I needed. I am sure that there is no need on this forum for yet another preaching on how good the TAB gear is, but I picked up the rear bag as well, and both items are of the best quality. Thanks a lot.
