Born4it Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 I'm shooting 250gr. Shockwaves through a 50 cal TC Encore, and I'll be shooting 150 grains of powder. I want the cleanest powder pellets on the market or the easiest to clean. Thanks for the input! Good luck, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livnreklis Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Re: Cleanest powder pellets? From what I heard 777 pellets are cleaner then pyrodex, and produce a little more ummmf per grain. Thats what I use, and I run 130grn charges and i'm happy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunterfisherman Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Re: Cleanest powder pellets? I use 777 but american pioneer is the cleanest hands down. You can shoot that stuff all season and it wont crud up the barrel. Jim Shockey's American Pioneer is what it's call. The pellets are square.

Gator Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Re: Cleanest powder pellets? I know the APP powder is pretty darn clean. I had been shooting the CLEAN SHOT pellets, which is the same stuff under an old name, it is really clean to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] 777 pellets are equal to pyrodex pellets, the lose 777 powder is more powerful than pyro in that form. That is why you should only shoot no more than 120 grains when using lose 777 powder. You can use 150 grains of pyrodex though. too_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
