Triple Seven FFG its always been reliable and it cleans like no other. I just got a new Traditions Pursuit last year I was shooting a Knight and I tried the pellets It was way harder to clean the nipple.  With the loose it cleans without any solvent. Maybe the gun metal but I would not put ant other powder through this gun at this point.
Lead em if they're running.

777 loose

Best bang for the buck!  No crud ring!  just fouled my barrel about 3 hours ago.   I won't be cleaning it until after the late season is over.

Thats the beauty of it!
