I can find no mention (either for or against) of 777 use in brass framed guns on Hodgdon's web site.

Hodgdon does advise using volume measurements only, and advises 777 be reduced by 15% to obtain performance equivalent to specific black powder loads. That is the procedure I used to obtain the recommendations in my post above.
