 I've been using Triple 7 loose powder & #11 Remington caps for a couple yrs & I've never had a problem with it igniting. I tried the pellets & didn't really care for them. I have a 50Cal Austin & Halleck that shoots great but it took a lot of expermenting with different bullets & powder measurements to get there. With pellets you don't have a whole lot of room to experiment which to me is half the fun. :hunter:

Thanks.............thinking of changing over to loose. Just right now it is pretty easy to drop pellets in and shoot............I'm think of hunting with it next year.
