Wood fired campstove?

[TheWanderer]

I have a Primus stove for cooking while camping but am intrigued by the idea of the wood fired ones like the Solo Stove. Does anybody use a stove like this on backcountry trips during hunting season rather than pack one that requires you also packing in the fuel?

I have used a lot of wood fired stoves for backpacking.

The two best ones I have used are the Caldera Cone:

and the MKettle:

The Caldera Cone is the best all-around solution. The MKettle is better for solo trips or trips with 2 people where you are just boiling water.

mkettle looks awesome. I have a kelly kettle, which I like, but it's rather large. Good for car camping though.

I have the Backcountry Boiler, which is almost exactly like the MKettle (but is no longer in production.) I think I use it more than any other stove.
