confused by 777
i just got my triumph for xmas and some 777 pellets with it, previously i had always used pyrodex where the pellets seemed longer.. when i went to sight my gun in i thought that it took two 777 pellets to make 50gr. so i ended up loading 300gr. of powder. my shoulder told me i was wrong, but do you think my gun is ok?
i felt so smart after i figured out my mistake lol

RE: confused by 777
I could not say if the gun is all right. That is a lot of powder to put through a rifle. So you're saying you put through six pellets in there? Each pellet is 50 grains. If you have doubts, you should have the rifle checked by a gunsmith.

RE: confused by 777
yea i did, i was just reading that someone else was confused by the size diff of the 777, i for some reason thought that every square in the box was 50 grains, not every pellet. completly ignorant of me i knw... i didnt notice anything abnormal when i cleaned it
I bet that really kicked!
