    I would say all three. I reused and repurposed them as targets. I sell them as scrap afterwards so they get recycled.

    as my yard requires a hole you can see day light through them to accept as scrap metal it just provides a more enjoyable way of causing required hole.

    I have tried using adapter to refill them. It works fine and a 20# lp tank will fill 15-18 accounting for loss and what you cant get out.

    Problem is i need only so many for my use. Tried selling them at not much above lp cost but didnt move enough to even pay for my adapter.

    I just find it the easiest way to deal with the surplus i aquire at times. No fuss and if one of my personal tanks is damaged or unusable i just swap a new one in and use the old one as a target.

    If I was on my property in rural Arkansas, I would probably have some fun target practice with them TOO! So three R's and some fun are OK by me.
