As said...it should be comfortable to wear for extended duration but not constrict/restrict your range of movement. Load it up with mags/bits-pieces/radio/etc. A lot of rigs "hang" differently when full/partially loaded (i.e. weesatch/wasatch) and some are a PITA to keep taking on/off to adjust (i.e. CIRAS).
It should definitely not flop around if partially full and you're hauling ass. Some are not tied down to your belt....others are. If it doesn't move around on you and you can comfortably wear it and the pouches are always at hand when you reach for them...then it's a good fit.
Keep in mind that you're rarely wearing just a t-shirt...so make sure you're setting up with what you'll wear (i.e. t-shirt + ?warm layer? + BDU top + ?weather layer?).
Some guys like their pouches sewn in permanently...others like the options that MOLLE platforms offer. Some like light chest rigs...others vest/full-cumberbund setups. Completely up to you and your preference.
Certainly get out and use what you've got...at worst (or maybe best) it'll help you narrow down on what you're really looking for.
