Rock Holders, Split VS Leather

I've become very addicted to making slings. I have made 3 braided ones and one leather. (1 for my bro also) I was wondering which is better. Leather seems better for smaller ammo....

Some people drive chevrolets, some fords. They both work fine, they just look different. You don't drive a jeep like a miata, and slings will behave somewhat differntly, but each type will still get the job done.
What really matters is the quality of the sling. Good sling = good slinging; poor sling = poor slinging.

I've started using the lovelock style more. I was surprised by how small my ammo could be without falling through. The straps just don't open as far for smaller ammo.

I agree Hobb. so long as you don't rotate the sling too much, then the ammo won't fall through. Most of my slings are split, only one leather.
