Shotput
I wish I could find real black powder around here
I've always used pyrodex exclusively up till a year ago. I got a new tub of the 777 last week on recommendation from a buddy who owns a tackle/gun shop. He had one of these rifles about 16 years ago and said the type of loads I was recommended to shoot, 777 was a hotter slightly cleaner powder.
Thanks for the tip though, I will take both the 777 and some FFG pyrodex with me to the range. I really haven't ever had an issue with fowling for a long while though. I know the superstition surrounding TC 1000, but I'd swear my MLs that are treated and cleaned with it shoot cleaner and more accurately. I even did a side by side test of it one time over a week with two identical rifles (my dad and I both have (had) .50 Deer hunter Rs) and the bore butter rifle shot better and cleaner.
I've been thinking about trying American Pioneer also, and I got some Black MZ for my inline.
