You mean 209 primers.. right?
What make of bullets are these three weights?
Are they lead or copper-clad?
Are they hollow-points or poly-tips?
What brand of plastic sabots?
Is your 777 loose FF, loose FFF or pellets?

Right you are 209 primers.I may try to get some of the Rem Kleenbore(muzzelloader) any experience with these.
Speer 240TMJ Sil, 270GoldDot, 300 Flatsoft point(my 444 loads) The 240 TMJ Sil. I bought by mistake I can't use them in my 444 mag tube.I'll use these the most for target practice.
Copper-clad
T.C. black 50cal for .429
777 will be loose(powder)
now tell me about FF and FFF
The last time I shot a muzzelloader (T.C.ThunderHawk 50cal)I used Pyrodex only so the 777 is new to me.
I also load for my 454 but I just have some CPs on hand.I can't see waisting lubed GCs in a sabot.Would you recommend a 45cal.I know they won't fit in the black sabots I have,but they won't last long.I used Maxi balls before in my T.C.they shot better than the sabots,but the guy in the shop told me to stick with sabots in the Knight.That's what they are designed for he said.
BTW 26"barrel
Thanks

I get good performance from:
100 gr Pyrodex (2 - 50 gr pellets)
Hornady 45-300 XTP MAG hollow-point
Never tried 777, though I am considering since I heard cleanup is easier.
