777 pellets vs. loose powder?

[S.B.]

I tried the pellets for the first time recently and was amazed at the increase in accuracy over loose powder. Anyone else experience this? This was with my Omega and T/Cs 295 gr. saboted bullets and Remington BP 209 primers. Ignition also seemed to be more rifle like(instantly) also?

My accuracy improves with the pellets as well. I suspect my powder measure might not be speaking the truth, but I don't know for sure yet. I have a NEF Huntsman and it seems to like 245 gr. Areo Tip Powerbelts. I tried the sabot types and they load so hard I gave up on them.

I never weighed the pellets, just took their word for them being 50 grains each?
I'm using 295 gr. Power Belts by T/C. and they load very easy. The actual bullet looks like pure copper?

6pt-sika, I think your the first person to not like the T/C Encores?

I always heard to foul the barrel before shooting groups?

So, what would you take for that POS Encore 50 cal.? Maybe we can make a deal. Is it stainless or blue? PM me with details and your best shot, please?

Anyone ever use 777 in cap & balls? If so, how did it work out? I'm thinking about getting away from the Pyrodex P if there's something better.

Of course there's something better they call them 45 Colt , 357 MAG and 44 MAG

You forgot the best one, the 44-40

Didn't know it comes in a FFFg granulation. Looks like I've got a trip to Union City to visit Dixie Gun Works coming up.
