I use it for clothes line and bear bagging if I have too. Old Ranger be carefull using mason line for guy lines. Why it is light and stong enough it tangles like crazy. I just took paracord off my tarp tieouts and replaced with kelty triptease and figure nines. I have worked construction my whole life and always have masons line laying around. Boy is it frustrating when it tangles. If a storm was movin in fast, you can bet thats when Murphy or Mayhem will tangle it!
