[Elecraft] OT- Coax for ground wire?

[W8JH]

I have learned quite a bit about grounding from K9YC and others on the list
over the years and thank you all for making my shack a better place.

I have been tying together outside grounds where antennas enter the house
back to the service ground as part of my improvements and have run out of
heavy wire to do so.  I do have some old RG 8X or 213 around and have been
thinking about using that for grounding.  My questions are:
1.  Good idea/bad idea?
2.  Should I use just the shield or is there any downside to bonding the
shield and center conductor at each end?

Thanks in advance for any advice offered.
