After having used a Hawkens the last 10 years or so, I just traded it in on a T/C Triumph. Having become sick of the mess of Pyrodex, I got a box of Triple 7 50/50 pellets (all that is available in town at the moment).
I have never used Triple 7 or pellets before. I'm wondering what advantage, other than convenience, pellets provide?
Sure seems to me that powder is more economical and probably ignites faster. My gut feeling is to get some Triple 7 3F powder and work up my loads with that.
I wouldn't mind trying the Shockey signature stuff and when it comes out, the Blackhorn 209, but out here in rural ND I'm unlikely to see or find a ready supply of either. It's either Pyrodex or Triple 7...
Suggestions and advise are mores than welcome...
