Default RE: Pellets or powder

I worked up my load using 777 loose and am at 85 grains. I am going to try 2 pellets and see if they are close in accuracy to this load. If they are I think I will use the loose for the range and the pellets for hunting. The pellets are easier to handle and if you want to unload after hunting you just slide them out the breach end. The guys I hunt with use pellets and even though my reload for a follow up shot was very close to theirs in speed, I think the unloading aspect was better. Just pop out the pellets no powder to clean up. However at the range the loose powder is much more fun.
