can you get the MW overstuffed?
With the net removed from the Hyperlite it sort of collapses into a tube, you have to locate your sweet spot each time you enter and exit (from the top of course). JustJeff wrote about a couple of cold spots near his legs (IIRC he was in a BM Bridge), I think the shock cord would eliminate both problems. It works great on the Potomac UQ design.
I also figured I'd always use that hammock/UQ together, if it is cold enough for a Mt Wash UQ, I won't need a bugnet.

Pan.
why is it suggested not to over stuff? The only reason I could think of would be extra down can not expand (loft up) therefore compressing itself which would make the over stuff pointless. What are the advantages of adding the extra over stuff vs. not?
Recieved my HR and pack cover 2 days ago, and am quite impressed with the workmanship. Fits my WBBB well and easy to set up. Great products and service! Thanks Pan.

RT, TAK, et al,
TAK is correct.... If you want to push a couple more degrees of warmth this is true but at additional cost.
JRB quilts are all over stuffed by 15-22 percent depending on the model...Their temp range capabilty are conservative and no additional overfill
is needed to achieve the advertzed capabilty....It has always been our policy to build the quilt to its stated level without recommending overfill.
Why don't we recommend a 2 oz overfill for someone seeking a warmer quilt? simple 2 oz is 10 degrees warmer and cost +$40.... generally going to the winter model of the same design get 20 degrees warmer for +$50 ... a better value IOHO.

My JRB RM No Sniveler I recently recieved (3 inch baffles), after lying on the bed for several hours, had four inches of loft between the baffles. That was without shaking the down to the middle.
