Bag suggestion, sub $300

[Adam Gibbs]

I'm looking for a new bag. I have a budget of about $300. This would be used for backpacking/camping around home and short duration spike camps out west. I usually truck camp as of now, but this year this may change.

I'm not concerned if this is the lightest bag in the world, just needs to be packable/compresassable. Thinking around 20 degree bag. I don't think I need a 0 degree.

What would you suggest? Im not sold on either down or synthetic.

Do you have this bag and like it?

I'd get a used 20 degree down quilt from EE, VIAM, etc. long wide. Should put you around 24 ounces and 250 bucks

More versatile, lighter weight, less money, what's not to love

REI Magma 15 or Marmot helium off EBay.

If you are OK with synthetic, I don't think a Wiggys 20deg back can be beat. It will be a heavier less packable option. I am also considering the Kelly cosmic Ultra Down.
