150 Grains of pellet is equal to 150 grains of loose as far as I know. The change comes when your shooting Triple Seven pellets and loose Triple Seven powder. And Muley, you're right three pellets do have a pretty good kick. Which is one reason I never shoot that. Also pellets to me are just a fun thing to shoot. Other wise I shoot loose powder 99% of the time.
