[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2898187, member: 25831"] I would disagree. We all take warming layers. Those can be used to boost the warming rating on a bag. You can get away with a lighter bag and use your puffies in it with you. No sense carrying the gear and not utilize it. These are bulky and do not pack down well, but they are warm. Synthetics, so they are bulky and not as warm as down, but neither is the price. Problem with buying a used synthetic is you can't determine how it was stored. Used military bags are probably stored in the cinch pack, thus loosing fill properties.
