Ok, I'm watching "The Best Defence" on the Outdoor Channel and some guy on here is using a bolt gun, but is carring it like he's using a two-point sling. The stock looks looked a baisic rifle stocl similar to a McMillian A-1 style stock. Right now I'm using a sling from The Outdoor Connection, ok, it's great, but is there a sling long enough to be used as a two-point sling. I'm not looking for a sling that you would use at Camp Perry with a NM AR-15, just something to carry my rifle with, not to get all "slinged up".

I don't have the smallest body (5'8", ~210lbs) and not that much fat except for my torso area. :)

I've been thinking about this for awile, but this just really bugs me.

Any suggestions on the kind of sling I'm wanting?

Thank you in advance,
P.B.Walsh

I have a 1917 leather sling on my Win 70 Compact. It is too long to cinch snug when I am not carrying it. I got mine used from a local shop, I got 2 @$20 each, Want one?
 
I thought that a 1917 sling was for shooting in a slinged up position? I'd figure that the sling would need to be at least 55"-60" fit like a two-point sling
