I have been using American Pioneer Powder compressed sticks in my Bighorn. 

Been really happy with it and it cleans up with water.

I used pellets for a couple yrs (pyrodex) and had trouble with misfires >:( cost me a big 5 point(whitetail) three yrs ago,i was using musket caps.

Went back to 777 loose and haven't had ANY missfires and I'm using #11 caps. So the answer from me to your question is 777 loose. :IBCOOL:

triple 777, it just seems to be very consistent in every muzzle stuffer Ive shot it in, and clean up is sooo easy.

Black Powder is what I use! Its fun! I like to keep it traditional during Muzzle loader hunting.

same question I shoot a Lyman trade rifle .50 Cal which I really like except that it weighs a ton. I've always used pyrodex rs would the 777 be a better choice?
