New to the sport of muzzleloading and I am wondering the differences between pyrodex pellets and triple seven pellets? I want to know what you shoot and why. Thanks for your help.

For me hands down triple 7 – it seems to be a litte drier than Pyrodex but it has the clean up and non-corrosive characteristics of smokeless powder.

January 10, 2007 at 9:55 pm #28116I’m with Kizew on this one. The only powder I use is triple 7. I shoot a 100 grains of powder with a 245 grain buffulo bullet company ball-et. I would also like to add that I shoot the powder, not the pellets. Personal preference I guess. The powder cleans up real easy and you can shot round after round with zero problems.

January 15, 2007 at 6:06 pm #28299I have only tried a few different brands and I am really liking Jim Shockey’s Gold. Burns very clean making it easy to load a lot of projectiles without it being a chore shoving them down the barrel.
