'''Hunting slings''' are one-handed ranged weapons. They accept both [[stone]]s and [[sling bullet]]s as ammunition, but using sling bullets will increase your damage significantly. Damage firing bullets is 9. Although weaker than [[bow]]s or [[crossbow]]s, they only require one hand, making them a good secondary weapon option for characters using [[shield]]s. Most sling-users will want to upgrade to a [[fustibalus]] at some point for superior damage while remaining one-handed.
