With 20* quilts = 79.3 ounces; 40* quilts total is 11 oz. less (68.3 oz.)...
Weights include WBBB 2x1.0 hammock converted to whoopie sling suspension, 8' tree huggers/Dutch clips/MSH toggles, 3/4 UQ & 'sit pad' (for feet/lower calf bottom insulation if needed), TQ, HG "4-Season" Cuben tarp (in mesh snakeskins)/CRL/all guylines/8 stakes... Hammock & UQ still attached are stored in double-ended stuff sack, TQ stored in stuff sack, huggers & stakes go in small stuff sack...
Total pack base weight (for a thru-hike) currently hovering around 13 to 14 pounds (w/20*quilts) - but still 'tweaking' & thinking about some minor details/changes/deletions... ;-/ ???
Happy trails!!!

Light Hiker with 2QZQ mod (extra zippers add a little weight)
Summer Incubator with 1oz extra down
Light Hiker Bedroll
MacCat Deluxe with Dynaglide CRL
4 Mini Groundhog Stakes for tarp
2 carbon fiber stakes for hammock
84.6 oz or 5 lbs 4.6 oz.
WBBB + Yeti UQ + WM bag + Speer Winter Tarp
(2 lb + 1 lb + 2 lb + 1.5 lb = 6.5 lbs)
or
Lightheart Duo Tent + WM bag + pad
(2 lb + 2 lb + 1 lb = 5 lbs)
These weights are rounded, so for me it is a choice between sleeping well or hiking less weight.... and depends upon how long I will be out
