great powder if you use the right primers,
January 27, 2009
By jstew28

"Works great with the winchester clean bore primer. I got 4 shots in one morning with no problem. I killed all 4 deer. This powder shoots just as accurate at one shot or 10. that is the most I can shoot with out cleaning. I shoot a cva kodiak with a stainless barrel that might make a difference too."

Needed cleaning after every shot - unable to load,
January 9, 2009
By IceColdShooter
from Minnesota

"I can't believe some of these 5* reviews from guys who say they must clean after every shot.
If you can't take a second shot why is that a 5? In the field, if you need a follow up shot and can't, this is a problem. It is not practical to keep a bottle of water and cleaning patches in my deer stand so that I can take a second shot.
I used these pellets with TC Fusion 209's. I was unable to get a second shot without a thorough cleaning. I'm talking multiple patches. Heck I could not even get the first patch down without a hard scrubbing motion. Even then, sometimes it took three patches just to reach the breach. 35 shots 1 full bag of patches.
These pellets may work fine with different primers. I see that guns suggest this product only when using Winchester 209's.
OK, my bad for not using a different primer.
This product may have rated higher with a different primer like the Winchester."

Just one thing to remember,
December 25, 2008
By 1776Flintlock1776

"When you look at the pellets one side is shiny and blacker than the rest of the pellet. That is the side to go in your barrel so it faces the primer. If you do the reverse I found it can mis-fire. I am not sure what the black coating stuff is but once you make sure to drop each pellet in this way you won't have mis-fires. I like the pellets it is easier and very easy. I have the Leupold Ultimate Slam and have the reticle set for a 2 pellet (100 grain losd) shooting a 245 grain sabot. Good to go!"

Did not like the "crud",
November 16, 2008
By Halfjaw
from Woodbridge, VA
|
"I must say I am open to trying new things so when I bought my new Optima I decided to try these pellets rather then the Pyrodex. This was way dirtier then Pyrodex after just 2 rounds. After shooting about half the box I tossed them aside and went back to the Pyrodex and am a much happier shooter."

"777 is by far the best powder ive shot out of my muzzleloader. shot a deer and in all the excitement forgot to clean my gun for a few days and was freaking out that my barrel would be rusted. a few patches down the barrel and it looked clean as the day i bought it. i deffenatly recommend 777 pellets"

Triple Se7en pellets are fantastic,

By srt5

"I ran 10 shots through my CVA tonight sighting it in from 25 to 100 yds. I ran a patch between shots and the sabots fell right in behind the pellets with no trouble. I heard guys say that there was alot of fouling left over, but a clean barrel in 30 seconds is worth an easy load on the next shot."

By Smokes
from Central Michigan

"I have used pyrodex in the past with my patch and ball gun but now with the Triumph that I just bought I wanted to go with something simpler and quicker then measured powder. I am so glad the sales associate pointed it out. I have shot over fifty rounds now and gun cleans with patch and water. I have also used windex with ammonia d with great success."

"First year with black powder was 06, found that pellets are very easy to use but ran into several problems. I had a few small problems at the range I think one misfire and after 2-3 shots several hangfires. Come november two misfires and a hangfire that resulted in a wounded buck!!! For 07 I switched to Jim Shockeys gold powder. Two shots two dead deer."

Triple Seven,
May 18, 2008
By veemax150

"After shooting the 777 & Pyrodex, I notice a difference in the leftovers in the barrel. Needless to say, I don't shoot Pyrodex anymore. I didn't find a difference in accuracy between the two when shots were taken after the barrel was cleaned. I find I can shoot more shots before barrel cleaning with the 777 than the Pyrodex due to the leftovers. I really don't think it's a big deal between the two because usually you only get one shot when you are out hunting."

"POWERFUL AND ACCURATE EASY TO USE, CLEAN UP IS SIMPLE. I HAVE BEEN SHOOTING MUZZLE LOADERS FOR THIRTY YEARS AND THESE PELLETS LEAVE MORE FOULING THEN BLACK POWDER AND PYRODEX. HAD TO SWAB BARREL AFTER EVERY SHOT OR BULLET WOULD NOT SEAT IN MY T/C TRIUMPH."

Triple 7 Pellets/Powder...,
December 16, 2007
By NDTerminatior
from Devils Lake ND
|
"I recently retired my LH Cabelas Hawkens and with it, Pyrodex. I got a new T/C Triumph and tried Triple 7 pellets.
It was hard to believe this propellent was as good as I had heard.
Well, believe it. Triple 7 is unreal. It doesn't stink, doesn't create excessive smoke, doesn't foul near as much as Pyrodex, and yes, it does clean up with plain water. I've found that it actually cleans up better with plain warm water dampened patches than with pre-treated solvent patches.
A few water dampened patches followed by some dry patches, a patch with alcohol, then a patch with Bore Butter, and you're done.
5 minutes tops and no more need for pricey solvents or pre-treated patches. No more boiling water. No more vile smelling Pyrodex mess. I told friends I'm going to have to make a mixture of boiling water, rotten eggs, and charcoal dust to spill on myself during cleaning so I know I'm working with a muzzle loader.
The only downside is the price of the pellets. I'll most likely switch to Triple 7 3F powder once I'm out of pellets as it's more economical and will allow me to fine tune my load.
Triple 7 combined with saboted bullets and my new highly accurate, easy to maintain T/C Triumph, and muzzle loading has become a whole new ball game!..."

Accurate.....with only a clean gun,
December 3, 2007
By Rauscher
from Milan, Mi
|
"I was recently sighting in my scope and the first shots (2-3) at 50yds would be right there, nice grouping. Then I went to a 100yd target and I wouldn't even be on paper, atleast 6in low. Like other comments, there was a heavy "crud" ring and the bullet would not seat properly, after only 3-4 shots. I know you should clean your gun while sighting in, but this was a little excessive I think. But out of a clean gun I was very accurate. Just something to keep in mind about this product.."
