I'm not familiar with any sling brand names, but make sure to get a nice wide padded sling. Sure makes it more comfortable to carry than those old thin leather slings.

You have made good choices. I have 2 Nikons, and they are good scopes for the money.I also think that for whitetails the 270 is a fantastic caliber.
Good luck and Good Shooting

Im waiting for a sunny day to sight it in. The last 3 months have been freezing with snow or rain.
As for the sling, Im not sure to get one of those foam jobs, or rubber fat ones, Or nylon. Does the rubber/ foam stuff break apart ?

RE: My Rifle Is Complete !!!!!!!!!!!!
Ditka, The type of sling is your preference. Whatever feels comfortable to you. I use a Nylon 1.250" Military sling.I don't carry my rifle that much by the sling. Usually when I do it's cold and I have a jacket on for padding.The wider slings are allot more comfortable then the narrow ones. If you plan on carrying it allot and in warm weather get a wider one.About the Foam Rubber,I'm sure in time it will disintegrate.I feel safer using Nylon. It's durable ,strong and dries fast. I mainly use my sling to pull the rifle up & down while I'm getting in and out of my Climber.There are several makes and models to choose from. It's up to you to see which one fits your likes.I agree that you should get some Flip up scope covers.Check some of the shooter's supply catalogs.Ruger Redhawk
