Nuff said?
That pic shows it kinda low, generally I have the gun on my back at roughly a 45 degree angle. As I said, let's me look over my shoulder at the barrel and duck it under branches and brush, and at least once the netting on the barrel (BTW, has real cadpat strips tied onto it) caught up damn good in branches, so I had to pull out my Spyderco and cut the branches loose. Lol, shit, been times I'll pull my rifle out of my case and find all kinds of things it's picked up, at one point a 6" long branch was pulled out from within the netting.

Its really easy and cheap to make a three point sling yourself.

I design/make my own slings already (I'm a cheap Scot bastard don'tcha know?), but I really have no problems carrying it as I do. I avoid carrying muzzle down, because I crouch a lot, sometimes end up on my back from dodging BBs fired at me, and last thing I want is mud and shit in my barrel. So it's always up for me. Sometimes if it's raining I'll put one of those red plugs in the barrel to keep water out, and pull it when I want to take a shot.
