Triple 7 price?

[eekjellander]

I'm surprised that they still have any Old Ensyford left in stock. That's good powder.

2 yrs ago and last yr at Travelers ,point is buy bulk get TYD and don't worry about price

Sounds good but I wouldn't use 25 to 50 pounds of BP in the next 10 years. I have been a member of my local club/gun range for more then 25 years and I have never seen anyone except me shoot BP or muzzleloaders.
Besides Triple 7 does just fine in my percussion guns.

And real black works best in mine cheaper /better and what muzzle loaders were designed for. Do whatever you like I do and why I will never complain about shortage/bans/prices , got it and shoot lots 3-4 times a week at our private short 200 yd and long 800 yds . Yup shoot lots cause I can and plan to keep on shooting ,no whining here /Ed

I usually buy my black powder from Graf&sons. They have a 4 pound minimum. I think I have about 20 pounds on hand at the moment.
Swiss 2f and 3f, Old Ensyford 3f and some Goex 3f. I'm good for quite a while.

I bought several cans of T72Fg and 3Fg over ten years ago when it went on sale for $5/bottle after the ML seasons. I'm still using it to kill deer every year since.
The key is to keep it in a dry, humid free place. I have had some clumps to form, but just rattle the bottle till it goes away, no problems so far....

I did the same with Pyrodex, bought a bunch at $5 bucks a can. When I open a new can of either 777 or Pyrodex I put Saran wrap over the top and then screw the lid on. Not had any problems.

I have several pounds of Goex black powder that's at least 15 years old. Still works fine.

Well, bought 2 lbs of Triple 7, FFF today. $82 out the door. I have 4 lbs on the shelf, but my plan is to buy a pound a week till they run out.
It surprised me a little, as thats the only loose powder they had....

I've got about one and half pounds of T7/FFF and at 79 I think it will last all my shooting days. Happy Shooting.
