Default RE: BH209 price discrepancy

Yes some of us think that it is much better, for one thing no swabbing, I used to spend 2 to 3 times as much time and effort cleaning the crud rings from 777 out as I did shooting, above and beyond that there is the simple fact that some of us that have worked up loads to suit our particular guns with it are getting varmint rifle accuracy at 100 yards and some really decent groups at 200yds. BH has about the same potential energy as 777 FFF maybe just a bit more but it is not near as sensitive to heavy loads. Since a lot of people like 100 gr I will use that as an example, I get 1940 with it with a 250 gr SW I much prefer 110 gr as it shoots nice one hole groups when I do the other half of the job and that load gives me an average of 2045 fps which is fairly flat shooting and very accurate.
Some people squck about the price but its cheaper than 777 pellets per shot and if you buy right you can get a case hazmat and all for about 29.50 per can. Lee
