Proper rifle sling setup is crucial for weapon manipulation and readiness, with no single 'perfect' configuration but rather mission-dependent preferences. Key adjustments include sling height for hands-free work and buttstock proximity to the shoulder pocket. Mounting points, especially the rear, should be as far back as possible and on the side opposite the cheek weld to avoid interference. Forward mounting points offer a trade-off between retention and neck comfort.

Proper rifle sling attachment is crucial for control and safety. Attaching both Quick Detach (QD) swivels to the same side of the rifle, especially the right side for a right-handed shooter, causes the rifle to flop away and lack tension. The correct method involves placing the rear QD swivel on the opposite side of the stock to create tension, keeping the rifle snug against the body and preventing interference when shouldering.
