So I'm picking up my muzzloader this fall for the first time in 8 years. I used to shoot the 295 gr aero-tip with Pyrodex pellets, both of which are now illegal in my state.
So this year I'm switching to loose powder and I friend of mine suggested Triple 7. The only legal powerbelt I can shoot is the pure lead series and I'm going with the 348 gr.
Question: I was told that the Triple 7 burns hotter than the pyrodex powder I used to shoot and that it will melt the plastic skirt too fast and that I need to stuff a little wonder wad up inside the skirt. Does this sound right to anyone?
Thanks in advance for any response.
Jason
