Default How many 100 grain loads in 1 lb of powder?

I appologize if this has been covered but I keep reading that loose powder is cheaper than the pellets / sticks but I am having trouble translating from lbs.to grains. I know 16 oz. in a lb. 28 grams in a oz. but how to the grains fit in to the equation?

I am new to muzzleloading and so far I have only used the APP sticks. I have noticed some of them with chunks missing and that can't be good. I am thinking about switching to 777 pellets or loose, APP loose, or BM3 and want to get a good feel for cost per 100 grain load.

By the way, shooting these muzzleloaders is a blast!

Thanks.
