In reply to QuarryKid:
Not sure why you specifically mention a 'Winter Rack'. My rack in Winter is generally much, much lighter than that I carry in Summer, especially compared to when climbing at Gogarth or Fairhead.
Anyway, I've used a Metolious 4 loop bandolier off and on for many years and they are a good bit of kit. They are certainly worth looking at as they give you more options when racking as well as reducing the load round your waist.
Also, since you've mentioned Winter climbing, I've sometimes used an improvised bandolier in Winter (i.e. a prussic loop) to rack extenders but due to issues with accessing rear gear loops rather than any other reason. That again works fairly well but I have moved away from needing to do this thanks having to modern icescrew clippers available.
However I would first look towards your harness. The harnesses I've had over the years have varied greatly in their ability to carry large racks. In some cases there has been a tradeoff with comfort especially when hanging. In others it has just been easier to get the waistbelt really tight without being uncomfortable.
