Hi group,
I have a trip planned for several days in Algonquin Park, Canada in September. I'd like to get your thoughts on a sleeping bag for the trip.

The average low during Sept last year was 28F with a min temp of 24F.

I'd like to be able to use whatever bag I get for the trip during the rest of the year- primarly in the Mid-Atlantic during Spring-Fall.

My thoughts are to get a 30F bag (assuming that the comfort rating will be 40) and use a liner and sleeping pad to get me back down to 30. I'll be using a double wall tent and figure I'll get another 5F. I know comfort is subjective but is this about right?

Also, does anyone have any suggestions for a bag? I've come up with few requirements:
Full zip (to use as a quilt)
Down
2.5 lbs or less
$250 or less (preferably 200 or less)

Thanks
