Looking to use it for shooting or just to carry the rifle? For shooting, which also works for carrying, I like the Tactical Intervention Quick Cuff sling set up. I use it on all my rifles now. I like the cuff as it doesn't seem to slip like some of the other versions do when slung up for more than one or two shots. I can also get it tighter as well. When not in use the cuff is held to the sling by elastic straps. You can see it in the second pic below. Tactical Intervention Specialists Rifle Slings and Accessories

Here's an old picture of it in use. Must be around 2005. I also use the sling on my large ARs as well.

Since my post above I received a Rifles Only Bungee Sling and I have to say it is really a well thought out sling and easy to adjust quickly. It has the front quick adjustment like the TAB RAS sling but it is positioned properly so instead of sitting on the back of your hand as I have found it to do on many students, it's behind the hand of the shooter when slung up so it's more comfortable. The RO Bungee sling also has a quick adjustment buckle on the bicep loop so it stays tight like the TIS quick cuff but without the extra cuff portion. I did some quick dry fire with it at home when getting it set up and I really liked it a lot and liked it even more when I got it to the range for a couple range sessions with it. Very easy to use. Brings together the parts of other slings that I like into one. Fast adjustment for lengths and positions and a tight bicep loop. They also make a version for ARs called the Carbine MultiUse sling but in talking with Jacob he says he likes to use that version on his precision rifles as well.

They aren't the cheapest slings but another good part about them is that both sides of the sling are able to be opened to change mounting hardware as some other slings are sewn in so if you go standard sling swivel then you are stuck with it and can't use it on a flush cup. This way you only need one sling and you can move it between rifles easier and having the quick adjustments in ther sling itself you don;t have to worry about changing adjustments from rifle to rifle as it's as easy as a quick tug to tighten up or pull to loosen.

Here's a couple videos
