Triple 7 FFFG or FFG Powder
« on: September 26, 2010, 08:06:34 AM »
I'm shooting a NEF Sidekick with the 25 ACP brech plug and CCI400 primers.  Does anyone have a option of which powder to use, FFFG or FFG?  I will be hunting deer and hogs shooting a harvester (green) sabot and the a Hornaday 44 Cal 240 GR HP/XTP. Thanks for any input on which powder usally shoots the best.

The rule of thumb that I was taught was fffg for .45 and under and ffg for .50 on up. Bottom line is shoot which ever one works best for your own loads. Kurt

Triple 7 is hotter than black and a whole lot easier to clean...
