    Does anyone use this sling for competitions? What are your thoughts? Good, bad, or ugly. I have quite a collection of different slings and before I add another $86 range bag queen to it I thought I'd ask for some impressions of overall usefulness.

    Time being of the essence in comp, a cuff isn’t practical. However, I do have and use this sling and cuff for other things but I suppose like anything with practice you might be able to use it and save time.

    I haven't seen any used in competition so that's why I was curious. Originally I was not a big fan of slings, except for carrying and tactical black rifles then Uncle Sam had me spend days and days in all kinds of positions and learning how to properly use the sling while standing, kneeling and even then the most uncomfortable position while sitting unless you relaxed the belt and that was when I was still lean and mean and I came away with a new appreciation of the uses of the sling for bolt actions. So when I came across this one it seemed like it might possibly offer some advantages for some competition positions with its QD cuff.
