Default ffG vs. fffG?

I' m just getting back into muzzleloading in preparation for the upcoming elk and deer season, and am experimenting with loads for my .54cal T/C Renegade. I was at the range the other day, and I tried some Clear Shot with good results. I don' t remember, but I think it was fffG. I know fffG powder burns faster causing higher pressures, and you typically use ffG in long guns for a slower burn and lower, more consistent pressures. I' m gonna buy some Triple 7 and some Clear Shot next week, and wanted to know what size to buy it in, or if it really matters. Also, will I need to reduce my charge compared to Pyrodex RS(normally use 100gr)? Any other pertinent info that will save me some time would be greatly appreciated.
