well I went to the muzzleloading store, and was looking at there powders, and pellets. The guy was really giving me bull I think. He told me that goex pinnacle pellets were the best you could buy, and that those were the pellets that jim shockey used. He said they have a commercial on tv were they shoot the gun 10,000 times without cleaning it. I could have swore that jim shockey shot american pioneer powder. So I kinda strayed away from what he said. He told me T7 burned 10% hotter than other powders, but only in the powder form. He said the T7 pellets were the excat same as the pyrodex pellets. He said it was just a marketing skeem to make money. He said pellets often cause your gun to hang fire. I know thats a lie because I have friends that shoot pellets. Well anyways I ended up going somewhere else, and the other guy I seen said T7 is one of the best you ould buy. He said he would sell me the pellets and guarantee them to shoot accuratly, and if they didn't shoot well to bring the rest back and he'll give me my money. So I went home set up the target at about 75 yards. I was already sited in at 75 about 1" high with 90 grains of goex ffg. First shot was 3"s high of the bullseye windage was perfect. I also noticed the gun didn't kick as much which was nice. I swabbed the barrel cause I was anxious to see how it cleaned and smelled. Man was I surprised that had no smell what so ever, 1 patch cleaned the barrel to where no black residue was on the patch. I always keep my gun verry clean, but it usually takes 4 or 5 patches to be completey clean. So I loaded again to see how accurate it was. I shot and put it right through the same hole. It just barely caught the edge of the 1st bullet hole. So I adjusted my scop 5 clicks down. Shot and 1 1/2 "s high it was perfect. I did 1 more click, cleanedit and oiled it. I was hapy as can be. I am sold on these T7 pellets. Sorry for so long of a write, but I thought I would share. Also thanks for helping me guys.
75 yards same hole, stay with them. Good shooting. They are good clean, powerful and accurate powder. See this for velocity of the 777, 100g is all ya need. Chap Gleason
