Tried mig wire over stick on a big tank repair last month

Swapped from 7018 to ER70S-6 for a 500-gallon tank patch in Tulsa and the weld laid down so much smoother with way less cleanup. Any of you guys made the switch for flat work and stuck with it?

Did you find it felt almost like cheating compared to stick, or was that just me being clumsy with the rods?

Cheating?" The lack of bite feedback makes it feel disconnected, not easier.
