I think the Amsteel Blue is pushing the limits as it is.. From what I understand, the 7/64" Amsteel has a rating of 1600lbs. The overhand stopper knot I am using is rated at 80%???? Given the non life threating nature of sleeping in a hammock... I think 20% of rated usage or the 5x factor as knotty said is more then fine.. This would give a rating around 256 lbs...
