A long time ago I had a Whisperlite then sold it.

But this year I'll be hunting basically all November. And I know how canisters can be when it's cold.

I'm hoping for some snow so I can hunt up higher and not have to worry about water. Where I'm going water can be hard to come by. Or requires dropping a lot of els to get to.

The MSR Reactor is awesome but those canisters are the weak link.

Don't like the idea of hauling a liquid gas stove around but I've had canisters go dry trying to melt snow. That really kills them fast.

Looking at the XGK. This the way to go? Seems like it's easier to keep clean than the whisperlite. Self cleaning sort of.

This the way to go?
 
You might also consider a Primus liquid fuel stove (Primus Omnifuel). Mine will use liquid or canister but they don't seem to make that option any longer.
