    Did the 6.5 pass through completely or did you find it expanded on the outer skin?

    It went right through. High shoulder shot just under the spine. A few inches higher than where I expected but it was a steep down hill spot. Mostly the 6.5 Amax do pass through.

    @Tahr

    How are you finding those MSR tents for size and ease of use?
    I have the dilemma heat vs sleep.

    My current tent is dark green. With the midnight sun, it dims the light enough to sleep ok.Part of my problem is the temperature, I need to be in a proper bag due frost or close to, but as soon as the sun catches the tent I'll be swimming in sweat.
    I'm beginning to think I might want a light coloured tent and sadly it needs to be expedition grade due the winds we have (cheap stuff just get ripped/torn from lines tugging). I get very limited stamina when I don't sleep properly.

    @Norway I like it for ease of use and lightness but I wouldn't rate it as a 4 season tent - more like 3 season. I find it warm and comfortable albeit a bit snug. But for just me anywhere except the exposed tops I rate it as being very good. I can get my pack and rifle out of the WX into the vestibule and in the main tent I can sit up and turn comfortably with room for my overnight stuff and boots etc.

    Thanks! I have been using a tarp lately as the kids occupy the tent, but up north tarps offer very little comfort. They're good for a cup of coffee, but not sleep. Do you have a tent you'd rate for the tops?
