I made some 60" long soft shackles that I used to make a loop to run through an end channel hammock suspension. I did not run the bury the full length, just far enough that the end of the bury was pinched in the larks head connection at the cinch buckle. If you don't have a way to pinch the end of the bury then you will probably have to make the bury full length. You could maybe try to stitch through the layers near the end to prevent the end of the bury from sliding out. Also in a standard soft shackle the end of the burty and the end of the backslpice end up right next to each other and are buried in the stopper knot. In a longer soft shackle like this where the bury does not go full length you should remove a few strands of the amsteel to create a taper at the end of the bury.
