Plastic vs. Leather
Until very recently, the leather slings were superior to the plastic slings as they had better quality and didn't stretch as much. But with today's engineering and the introduction of fibers into the plastic makes the plastic slings a notch better than the leather ones. The two main advantages are that plastic stretches less than leather and usually lasts longer. The less the sling stretches the better - less effect on the recoil, no changes in length during the match etc.
