Butler creek is what we use exclusively. Super comfortable (neoprene type material). We've only had them for a couple seasons but they seem to be holding up to the abuse.

Grovtec Mountaineer Sling. It’s simple, light, and has enough grip on the upper, inside section that touches your shoulder.

Edit to add: I’ve never actually weighed one but they are light. I’ll weigh one of mine tomorrow if someone needs it.

Quake claw. Sticks to your shoulder and doesn’t dig in because of rubber pad. I actually just got a new one today with qd for my rokstok. I will note my shoulders aren’t the greatest from injuries so I baby them..
I second the Quake Claw, perfect mix of grip/comfort. I sometimes throw my rifle across my back (sling across chest) when I’m doing more arduous climbing/running etc. and the Quake Claw doesn’t dig into my neck but also keeps the rifle anchored.

I built mine. 4’ of 1” tubular nylon with a set of 2” loops on each end. 2’ of 1” tubular nylon sewn every 4” to make loops for adjustment. I run the end loops through QD attachments and use S binders to secure the end loops to the desired length.

Probably clear as mud.

For a hunting rifle, the Quake Claw.

For an AR type rifle. Sly Tactical sling. It's like a Vickers, but custom made for your height and weight, and has a small T shaped nylon handle for adjusting. Berry Compliant and 100% made in the USA in Montana.

I like the Ultimate Gun Sling. Doesn’t slide and easy to go no hands with it for climbing and other activities
