I would but I don't want to have to get another tank, Currently I use 75% argon/25% carbon Dioxide mix for Mild steel GMAW.
They sell SS wire for mig welders that will work just fine with 75/25 mixture. Ask your supply house.

personally IMO, i think that 2" would be to big. sure you would have tons of flow, but no velosity.

it seems that 1.750 is the way to go
