I have a TAB sling on my rifle. It is not lightweight, but it is well made with lots of nice features. I occasionally shoot high power rifle with my RRA 5.56 NM, and in a similar manner, the TAB sling lets me quickly "sling up" for prone or sitting if I want to in a hunting situation.

My rifle weighs around 8.5 lbs unloaded with 20" LW barrel and Vortex Viper HS 4-16x50mm scope in Burris PEPR mount. It is no lightweight, but the stability is nice for field shooting.
Best,

I have a similar setup
http://www.65grendel.com/forum/showthrea...ejon-Ranch
but when I put it on the scale when I built it, it came in at just a hair under 10 pounds. It has a Bushnell 6500 Tactical scope 2.5-16 which is suppose to weigh 17oz but they list the same weight for the one that does not have the target knobs so it is probably heavier. The scope is mounted in a GG&G FLT

Which adds 5.5 oz.
I am thinking of trying some sort of double shoulder single point sling like:

and some type of load bearing vest that will fit under my daypack.
I currently use a Vtac padded sling and find myself wanting more.
