Charlie,

The power handling efficiency of RG-6 is better than equal size RG-8X, so it should work well. Look at the maximum voltage ratings of both.

I've heard of this being done, but can't think of any negatives, except the 
power rating.
I suspect the actual impedance of the coax is irrelevant.
