Yes
At the moment i have a slingshot 200, but i would like something with easier access on the move for quick lens changes and the stealth reporter seems to fit the bill nicely.
But i am not sure on what size to get, i think the 200 but would like so see if anyone here uses one with similar kit to me.

At a minimum, i need to fit a 40d with a sigma 10-55 attached, plus a tokina 11-16 and a canon 70-200 f4.
 
I have the Stealth Reporter D200 and I can normally have 500D gripped with 18-55mm, Canon EF 75-300, EF 50mm 1.8, 580EX II speedlite and still two compartments free. I'm not sure of the size of 70-200 f4 so can't say if it'll fit.

I switched from a slinghshot to a stealth reporter for the same reason you are considering.
Over time I have found that with a 40D, Canon 10-22 and Tamron 18-270 I tend to suffer from should and neck ache.
I wear the bag across the shoulder as I find it uncomortable over one shoulder.
I've now switched to a 50D and a 24-105L and hopefully I will soon have 70-200L IS soon.
This combination won't fit into my stealth reporter D200 and with the added weight of 2 x L lenses, I just know I will suffer even more so will be going back to a slingshot.
I've also got a mini treker as well and it's very comforable but I only use it when I need to take all my kit and there is no quick way to change lenses.
You might find it comfotable using a should bag but it's worth thinking about with heavy kit.
 
Cheers guys. I have decided to take advantage of the second hand 500 in the clasifides. I'm sure i will get on just fine with it, but if not then it's no big loss. :)
