Howdy,
I've been shooting and loving (the smell also) of BP for 30 years. My first can was DuPont.
Here is my question. I use Lee powder dippers to measure powder and I got a wild hair and bought a LB of 777 for s***s and grins and lord o' mercy 777 is not listed in the Lee dipper info.
I have 3 sets of these doo dads. The first set was red and the last 2 sets are yellow. Do any of y'all know if a given dipper volume of 777 is the same as Pyrodex P? They look the same. I use about 30 grams BP in the Old Army and have read to use 15% less volume of 777. I am not as concerned about the 15% but would like to know which dipper scopes what aprox. volume of 777.
I could buy a scale but it seems like a waste of $$ since I have no intention of getting back into ctg. loading again.
Thanks in advance
