@Shooter6 'Snagging trees' when rifle is in hand or when rifle is on shoulder ?

Shouldered. Through the thick shit when 2 hands are needed to stay upright.

@Shooter6 Righto, know your pain. I chopped a Shilen select match back for the same reason and rue that to this day. Why? because there is a simple fix!
Buy a German made Niggeloh sling, remove the sling stud from the fore-end of the rifle stock, fit the sling so that the end that would normally be around the the swivel forms a firm but sliding loop around the barrel, fit the bottom end in the normal way and adjust for length / position.
I have four centrefires set up like that and will never go back

Imitation (copying) is the greatest form of flattery ! But in this case I think it is 'Great minds think alike' !! You havent chucked the stud out, drill a hole parallel to the barrel and fit a Blaser style bipod mount
Q where is the double thickness of pushbike tube around the objective end of the Z5 and the car tube skirt over the turrets ?
