new rifle question

[DEPUTY]

well it was my first trip to the range with my new encore 209x50 found a load right off the bat, 2 t7 pellets with 250 hornady sst! shot sub 1ich groups at 100yds now iam going back tot try it with pryo and maybe 3 pellets of each  just to be curious!  now which is producing more velocity, T7 or pyro

You likely won't notice much difference between two Pyrodex pellets and two T7 pellets as far as velocity goes. There is a big difference with loose, however. 110 grains of loose will give you about the same velocity as 150 grains of loose RS.
