I have my hands full with Pyrodex pellets and loose and Goex fffg. If it's free I'll take it just to have fun with. Maybe I'll get lucky and have a rifle that likes it. If not I would have fun shooting Cheap Shots with it. Right now I need to by both a box of Pellets and a bottle of loose Pyrodex. And I'm BROKE. But I do have a new BABY on the way!!!

I can not believe i actually found this old post:

Did some shooting with sabots. 200gr Lehigh solid brass bullets in an MMP blue sabot. I used 150gr Loose Pyrodex RS and 777 primers.






Just goes to show you that you cant give up after only a few shots :s2:

Your post has nothing to do with this thread. 100gr volume is max charge with JSG Super Powder and no its not max charge with just a 250gr bullet. Its max charge of 100 grains by volume period as listed on the bottle.

It's a way to tell you to experiment LOL.

I remember when i took a handful of shots with the hornady fpb and got ragged on it saying i need to shoot them more in order to give fair enough results.

This is basically the same. Blackhorn209 wasnt all peaches & cream from the start. It took load development. Same thing you have to do with this new powder.

I agree with Omega totally,very few rifles group well with a 150 gr of any powder..50 gr of that load, probably blew out the barrel.has nothing in common with his findings. Ray

My Accura loved 150gr Powder. Its all about load development.

The point is, its a new powder with basically ZERO info on the net about it. Its going to be a learning process all over again.

BH209 certainly has spoiled all of us, but its still fun to play with other powders and learn about them.

Jon, your kickin that dead dog again,very very very few rifles shoot 150 gr of powder with any bullet well.take JSG and pyrodex or 777 or whatever and do side by side load comparisons like Omega did, that tells a story.your own tests on APP proved that using 777 or even pyrodex are superior powders.

Arrangements have been made to pass the jug off to Pluckit. He can try it in his .50's. Maybe he will have better luck.

Pluckit,
Do not buy any RS. I will give you what I have left of a jug. I have T7 pellets too that I will sell ya cheap too.
