Mostly I’ll use it for 2 to 4 anglers or 1 to 2 for an overnighter.  I use a snowmobile to drag my stuff so weight isn’t as important as if I were a dragger. One thing I’m really curious to know is how does the 650XD fish with 4 anglers? Any suggestions or advice is appreciated. _

That 650 will be tighter than the 850.  If weight isn't an issue, why not go bigger?
Most of the time I fish with alone or with 1 or 2 other anglers. I think the single hub is easier to set up and weight does matter some. Strawberry slush is like quicksand. Even with a snowmobile. I also think the 850 is much bigger in the bag.  That 850 will just about fill a sled alone. I think I've talked myself into the 650.

I love my 850. best tent ever made. glen
