Do you mean Mountain Star? I think the Storm Star is a 2P.

what are you planning to do?

Hike in a few miles and use it as a base camp in Wyoming,
Colorado and wherever else I plan a hunt

It'll be fine.

Nothing wrong with the mountain star.
Has it pluses and minuses like all tents.

Well i have had a few free standing over the years and the msr hubba was the best as far as a hunting tent with a touch of durability.
Nemo and big Agnes both to fragile for me.
Best used for lightweight backpacking.
Big Agnes zippers snagged so easy I decided to send it back within 10 minutes of its first outing.
Msr hubba or look at msr’s stronger version.

Assume early season due to username?
Are you actually sleeping 3 or just want room for gear with 2p?

We have a Big Agnes Blacktail 3, and a Durston xmid 2 that our family of five uses. The kids usually sleep in the blacktail, it would be tight with 3 adults, but doable. 2 people and gear is fine in the xmid with the vestibule space.
We've used our Big Agnes for a while and only issue so far is one of the plastic rainfly clips cracked,but it's still holding togesther.

The Storm Star (from the title) is 4 season, Mountain Star is a 3 season and is lighter than the storm star. If we're comparing the storm star, I personally prefer the Stone Glacier Skyscraper 2p. It's lighter and has more interior space with similar levels of durability and setup time. I also have a Mountain Star and it's a good 3 season tent, but I've been considering selling it to buy a Durston X-Dome 2. The X-Dome is lighter and has more interior space compared to the Mountain Star. The X-Dome also has a "solid" version that can be used as a 4 season option.

Edit: Disregard, I saw that you put 3p in the post but for some reason I read 2p...

Mid/late season actually. Gun hunt just as much as bow

Another vote for MSR hubba hubba.
I've ran the last 2 version of the hubba hubba over the last 8 years and no complaints.
Use it up in northern BC for August sheep hunts and September goat hunts.
