777 BP Substitute

[Paul Harm]

I've shot 2F, 3F, Pyrodex, and Clean Shot in my 12 and 10ga guns with no problems. It's the plastic wads that melt in the barrel. The shells will get burn holes around the base after a couple of shots. You should be fine to go.

Only used FFg to keep it simple. I use 2 1/2 or 2 3/4 dram and 1 oz shot. I only use paper hulls and use felt and card wads/overshot, no plastic hulls or wads. I'm happy with the results.

Idle question: do the BP subs mentioned produce the same smoke, fire and bang of BP? If so, might be fun to load up a few for a bit of "Trojan shock and awe" at Friday night skeet.
