I am 6'2 220 side sleeper with a 50+ inch chest which is why I have never owned a sleeping bag. I am looking at the Nemo Sonic line of bags due to their width and can't decide between a 15 or a zero degree bag. This will be my only sleeping bag and I will use my quilt on all trips with expected temperatures above the high twenties. Considerations are that I want this to be a long term investment and I am in the military/will be stationed in different climates. I like the idea of the vents on the zero and that bag would give me two sleep systems to cover all temperature ranges, my concern is that it may be too warm in the 25 degree temperature average of Arkansas winter over the next month or two.
