Padding - What to use/not use

Recommended Posts

Would natural cotton batting (like used for quilting) be okay for padding rifle slings, interior of rifle cases, and bridle nosebands? What about the synthetic/poly batting? Any possibility of problems with moisture retension? If this is not a good idea, what is better to use?

Thanks!

I can only add for rifle slings but I use neoprene for the padding on those guys. Right now Im doubling up 1/8" until I get rid of the skin then I will order some 1/4" stuff. Neopene or closed cell foam works great for strap padding and such. I think its easy to work with, you can cut it to shape and it glues very easily.
