I have a couple LP steel 72's left over from OC days. Anybody know the weight difference to AL 80's when full? I am considering using them for BO. There compact and trimmed well when diving OC.

There will surely be someone who feels otherwise, but I would try and steer away from using steel anything for BO. They will hang on you like a wet rug and your trim will probably go to crap. 140cft of LP storage = a nice little cascade bottle.
