.I am getting some really nasty hard carbon type fouling in the breech club bolt area.Is this typical?Also, when I run a patch down after shooting one shot the 777 is noticably dirtier than the clean shot.Almost as bad as pyrodex.Typical?
Yes, 'fraid it is typical! 777 fouls my guns worse than any powder except straight black. Clean Shot is now called "American Pioneer", and they now sell "sticks" instead of "pellets". Same thing though. Seems they had to change the name of the pellets because of a lawsuit by Hodgdon. Seems Hodgdon thinks they own the word "pellet". I believe I owned a pellet gun before there was a Hodgdon Powder Company!!
