I would personally take rapid shot earlier. Deadly aim as well. Advanced weapon training: Trained throw is amazing as well since the sling counts as a thrown weapon. The sling fighter if definitely only of the stronger ranged characters out there. You could also get slipslinger style and use the double sling for TWF.

Adopted doesn't work that way. I allows you to take a race trait NOT a racial one.

For instance, you picked reactionary from Combat traits and you MUST the Race trait from a similar list background traits limited to Race ones. Look here for a basic list of them: Race Traits

What you CAN'T pick are the racial traits listed under the individual races. For instance, you are unable to pick low light from an elf or weapon familiarity from a dwarf.

Here's how I'd do the feats for a slinger (halfling vanilla fighter, naturally)

1) Point Blank Shot
FB1) Precise Shot
FB2) Weapon Focus: Sling
3) Slipslinger Style (now you can use a slingstaff, which is much better than a sling)
FB3) Rapid Shot
5) Startoss Style (have to choose this *or* slipslinger style for one level)
FB4) Weapon Style Mastery: Startoss Style (now you can use both styles)
7) Startoss Comet
FB5) Startoss Shower
9) Deadly Aim + Advanced Weapon Training: Trained Throw

From there you'll want things like Weapon Specialization, more advanced weapon training for things like Armed Bravery, Trained Initiative, and Focused Weapon (slingstaff) once that's a meaningful boost.

I want to focus on "getting a lot of rocks in the air" before I want to focus on static damage boosts.
