RE: throw our 777 away, look for this new powder
 
Hey,
I don't believe a 10oz. bottle of BH209 will give you more shots then $12 of 777 in a 1lb. container bought at Wal-Mart. I have had no problems with the 777 I bought 3 years ago. I shot 1" to 2" groups years ago and still shoot the same groups today with 777 bought at the same sale. Why would I want to go out and spend $30 on 10oz. of BH209?

why do you need 150 grains of powder to shoot a deer at 30-40-50 yards? Cuz everyone else does it:D:D

Hey gander,

I agree. I shoot a 460 No Excuse over 70grains of 777. Took two deer this year with that load. One at 80 yds. and one at 130yds. I also use loose powder, just can not see the pellet thing.
