Just wondering what all you guys think about the magnum pellets by 777...Has anyone ever done a side by side testing of the magnum pellets to loose powder or to regular pellets or both? Tell me your experiences good or bad...

Have not used them, but do see where they are almost twice the price as regular pellets. I have only seen boxes of 50 in the magnum, and they are not much less than 100 of the regular pellets.

anybody know how many much regular powder two mag pellets are equivalent to?
Each pellet is equivalent to 60 grains therefore for two pellets is 120 grains. When dealing strictly with magnum 777, never exceed 150 grains,or serious injury or death can result.
The magnum pellets are equal to 60 grains of loose T7 powder, so shooting 2 them would be equivelent to 120 grains of loose T7 or 150 grains of BP or Pyro
Regular pellets are equivelent to about 38/40 grains of loose T7 or 50 grains of BP or Pyro. 3 pellets would then equal 150 grains of BP or Pyro. 2 pellets would be equal to 100 grains of BP-Pryro or 85 grains of loose T7...
It has been so long since we discussed this stuff....
But like some one said if you can do yourself a favor and use loose - lot less money and more easily adjusted to your bore and bullet.
