Sling ideas for a Tropical?

[TennBill]

Just got my (first) Ruger no. 1 in .416 Rigby. I was amazed at the size/weight of the barrel! By comparison, I also bought a 7mm magnum bbl in case I wanted to switch some day. I'm thinking I'd like some type of canvas sling. I have yet to fire it but the weight suggests to me a wider sling. Any thoughts appreciated! Bill

Trader Keith makes a canvas style sling that I use for all my Number 1's. It is topnotch in my book.

Thanks for the info! I wound up buying a similar design from 'Jeff's Outfitters'. I wanted something kind of classic and fairly wide. The canvas seemed to be a good representation of a classic 'safari' style....I thought, in keeping with the caliber.
