I bought 3. I'll take one and do a test. Ill take a 2x4 screw sling Mounts in it and attach one of these sling. Then I'll add weights to it see what the braking point is.

Can't wait for the results

I think it'd be interesting to see Chineseum slings vs surplus GI M16 type slings. Those are also a pretty cheap sling option.

Andy's Leather is having a sale.
Nope, they aint cheap.
They are nice though.

Still looking for old quick adjust Bucheimer sling like I have on my Rem 760.

Excuses

We lost power for about 5 hours my saw doesn't like to run without it.

Well I finally got around to doing a test for these slings.

That's 81lbs of concrete and 5lb 2x4x40". Total weight 86lbs. Its been hanging for 13 minutes so far. Will update with more pictures after it hangs longer.

Impressive so far. Though I dont see anyone buying a ma duece to sling and around.

I just went out took it down. It was hanging with 86lbs of total weight from 1425 until 2110 so 8 hours and 45 minutes approximately. Here are pictures of the brackets, clips and seams.

Looks good to me. Did you happen to get before pics to see if any differences?

 

[DadSmith]

I have 5 new ones unused the only thing I noticed if you look at the hooks there is wear from the excessive weight. Otherwise they are like the new one's. I can post pictures of a new sling tomorrow if you like. Zoom in on the top hook you will seethe slight wear on it.

Personally I'm totally satisfied with these slings. $2 sling holding 86lbs for almost 9 hours. It's good to go imo.

I've been happy with mine so far and your test just makes me feel even better about them.

Might try to get Project Farm on youtube to do a best sling testing.

Seems like a good idea.

FWIW, I used one of these to carry my heavy, bull barreled 10/22 squirrel hunting today. Worked great.
