Incorrect there also...

BH is shipped in 10 oz containers - $25/container (if you can find it for that) + Hazmat fees
T7 is shipped in 16 oz containers - $18.40/container + Hazmat

So
16 ounces of T7 ='s 7000 grains
10 ounces of Bh ='s 4375 grains

It really is simple economics to me....

BH -> 4,375 gr/10oz -> @70 grains/100 grain loads of BH. $30/62 loads = $0.48 per shot.
T7 -> 7,000 gr/16oz -> @77 grains/100 grain loads of T7. $20/90.9 loads = $0.22 per shot
Very good points made. But I was comparing it to the pellets since that is what a lot of guys like to use and when you do the math it is just as economical and cheaper than a brick of T7. I think the 50 loads will come out somewhere around .75 per shot. But I will agree with your loose comparison.
