there's several cottage manufacturers that are going to get you warmer and lighter, granted at a cost. Or buy used off one of the hiking forums.

Definitely. Have my eye on an EE Revelation 30. I know they're the same temp rating, but from what I gather, EE is conservative on their rating, while Sierra Designs is pushing it with theirs.
