I use 20F quilt in summer in PNW, in June I would take it up to 6000 feet. Enlightened Equipment Enigma 20F would have you covered for $256 right now. Get 10F model and a draft collar if you want a bit of extra warmth security.
Enlightened equipment. Chose your temperature, fill and size. They make wuits but the convert is awuilt with a zipper. My 20 deg bag weights 18 oz. I got the regular wide so it airy in the summer and i can wear a poofy wirth a hood when its ccols as i i like climbing mountains and backcountry skiing. I couldnt imagine a better bag. Been sleeping outside since 95.
I use a summer quilt for warm nights and an Enlightened Equipment Enigma 20°F (950 fill power) quilt for colder ones. And my pad is thermarest neoair nxt r4.5.
I used [Apex100](https://www.reddit.com/r/Ultralight/s/7ZnTBu2xdk). I am also a super cold sleeper. My [20F EE Enigma](https://imgur.com/a/2s5OIhf) with all my layers is cold at 35°F. I do have to insist that a 660g 8 to 9°C comfort bag sucks, no matter how cold OP sleeps. Especially comparing to my diy quilt which is similarly rated, way lighter and sythetic. I mean, the weight difference is so much that you could layer an entire additional [3°C comfort rated Cumulus quilt](https://cumulus.equipment/en/eu/p/quilts-and-comforters-neo-quilt-300) on top, be waaay overkill for even the coldest of sleepers, and still be lighter than the rab piece of junk.
I have the EE 20F enigma. It works well for southern utah. If you feel cold in it at low temps I recommend a bivy. It keeps drafts away and will keep you warm enough. Are you a cold sleeper? What’s the lowest temp you have used it in?
I have an EE Revelation 850 & an EE Enigma 950. Both 20°, 10D inner and outer. I haven’t had any problems with drafts or down leakage in either but the 850 fill is significantly warmer and doesn’t have issues with down migrating. I will soon be selling the 950 because it just isn’t warm enough.
EE quilts are straight up poorly designed too. Their baffles shift down to the sides and EE was a well-documented down under-filler before they finally owned up to it. Between the two, Katabatic is a far better buy.
I have the 20f quilt and I would trust it down to 30f if you have the attachment points. Without those you’ll have drafts.
My SO sleeps cold. Thermarest Trail Pro - they used to make a women's specific one. I may upgrade this to the Nemo Tensor All Season for a holiday gift. Feathered Friends Egret - I take this from her when I go climbing it's so cozy I sleep warm- I freaking cook: Nemo Tensor All Season EE Enigma 30 950 fill
Marmot Mad River 0° is currently on sale at REI for $250. Kelty Cosmic Down 0° is the standard inexpensive option. EE *has* had their quilts on sale recently. If you want to go the quilt route you should be able to get a 0° Enigma for around $400. That will be your lightest and most compact option.
