    I guess everything is better out west, over here in CT I paid $180 to buy the bottle full and it cost $70 to fill my 80cf bottle yesterday.

    I went with 125's for argon and my argon/CO2 mix. They are able to be handled easily, and will fit in my jeep cherokee when I have to drive it down the mountain in winter. Also, I don't feel my carts would handle much larger. My argon bottle I got last was on a winter special at the LWS. I purchased it for $140 with an initial fill of only $19, sale price. I think it will be about $35 to fill normally. I'm not in business, so they seem to last a reasonable amount of time.
