[QUOTE="jebel, post: 2258860, member: 106189"] Pretty new to muzzleloaders. I’m trying to set a standard weight-to-volume measure for 100 grains-by-volume of Hodgdon’s 777 FFG. I know the mantra that it’s named 777 because it’s 77.7 grains weight to 100 by volume. Only problem is that my own testing is nowhere near that. I get about 84 grains weight to 100 volume from my measure. If I tap it to let it settle and fill to 100 capacity, I get 86-87 grains weight to 100 volume. What do you folks get/use? I realize at the end of the day I can set whatever standard I want so long as I work it up safely in my rifle, but I’d like to be in the ballpark of common usage to better interpret what others are saying. Thanks [/QUOTE]
