Looking for a good sling for my SPR but there are billions out there and I can't really decide. I have a LMT SOCOM stock and a KAC FF RAS fore end.

What would you think?

What do you plan to do with the weapon?  I don't think an honest answer can be given without knowing how you shoot, or what plans you have.  

I don't mean to avoid answering your question, but I won't give you a bogus answer that may be the opposite of what you need.  Hopefully that makes sense.  What I do with my sling and weapon, may be very different than what you do.

I could use a sling for multiple reasons. A a single pt could work, but a single pt id most likely have get a different plate. I'm just wondering what your personal favorite might be and what would work with a SOPMOD stock and a RAS system.

Are you wanting the sling as a means of carrying the rifle, or do you intend on using it to brace for position shooting?  Will you be carrying it over long distances?  Do you anticipate the possibility of transitions or off-shoulder shooting?  Need to get in and out of vehicles or confined spaces slung up?  Need to be able to go prone slung up?  Need one sling for several weapons?  All of these are factors.

Have you taken a look at the IDF style slings?

Take a look at this link, brought you by the good people of dsgarms.com

There are other places to find IDF slings, but DSG will take good care of you if you decide to go that route.
