Lafuma X800 Sleeping Bag: 40 Degree Synthetic DO NOT USE

Item #LAF0161 | 0 in Stock

I have been trying to decide between to decide between this bag...

By Ranked #300 - Sleeping Bags April 6, 2009

I have been trying to decide between to decide between this bag and the X650. They are both rated at the same temperature, but the X650 is a little bit bigger and heavier. Would there be a noticeable difference between the temperature considering this X800 seem like it would have more fill?
Also, I've heard that Lafuma bags don't live up to their ratings. SO how is this or the x650?

I haven't used Lafuma myself, but as far as the temp rating, they would "feel" the same... Its that the fill in the 800 would be lighter and better quality than the fill in the 650.
