The Darksider's Den / Re: Loading 777 in cartridges
« Last post by Sedalia Dave on Yesterday at 07:26:57 PM »First question, is it 2F or 3F?
3F is for modern muzzle loaders only.
2F can be used in cartridges, shot shells and modern muzzle loaders.
Hodgdon does not recommend that any grade of 777 be used in antique firearms.
Load it to just shy of the base of the bullet. Hodgdon does not recommend compressing 777.
