yep i know the 200 block is a lot heavier as i have had to hump 2 down my w/shop in the last week and i can carry a 205 block quite comfortably but these 200 blocks weigh a bl00dy ton
and during a discussion i had earlier with somebody (s2martin) we were discussing the different weight of the 2, and i wondered if anybody on here new, seeing as some of you are cossie breakers and you must of posted some
