I’m interested to hear if any of you with the WM mummy bags are side sleepers. If so, how well do they accommodate sleeping on one’s side? I’m looking to buy a WM bag but am unsure on mummy or semi rec for shape. I’m 6’0” and 200#.

I'm not seeing that you answered if you were sleeping on a pad. I know that my 20 degree pad will be perfectly warm if I have an insulated sleeping pad, but I'll freeze if I don't have one.
I have had great luck with bag liners mine was cheap ways just over 1/2 pound and if temps are going to be in the 30s or less i use it in my 20 degree down bag. It does take up space and adds weight but the comfort is worth it. I also agree that a good ground pad is necessary.

I have a mummy bag and a neolite xtherm... I sleep on my side with now issues although sometimes my neck gets sore even with a pillow... but I'm 6' 150# so there might be a volume of bag/width of shoulders component at play as well.

I have a big Agnes Beryl sl 0 that weighs 2 lb 14 oz and a big Agnes two track that weighs 1 lb 12 oz. This is not UL gear by today's standards but not bad either. I'm a very cold natured person, like a petite woman, and this works well for me down to 20° or so with very little clothing. Sometimes I throw in some hot hands before getting in but it's probably not recommended or needed. Another feature I like about this system is the pad slips in a sleeve attached to the bag so you aren't sliding off it it all the time.
But if it's super $ upgrade time, there's better stuff I'm sure.
