Any of you folks tried shockeys gold bp sub yet? A local shop had some & said it was new. I'm a sucker that way & bought a pound...

I just loaded a bunch of 43 Mauser for accuracy testing & when I poured some out into the small sherbet cup I use, it raised a lot more dust than anything else I've used. Which I do not care for a bit.

Anybody else used this stuff? I'll post accuracy & chronograph consistency after I've fired a bunch of it. SW

I haven't used it, so have no personal experience with it. The few "reviews" I have read about it are mixed, some good, some bad. It seems the majority of those who have used it feel 777 is better, then Pyrodex. I use real BP, but I keep my ears to the ground as far as what is available should the availability of BP dry up.

I've had best accuracy results in Euro metric BPCR with Pryodex CTG... I have a couple pounds left, but I don't think it's made anymore. Wifey likes 777 as it doesn't stink up the kitchen when I clean cases...

I don't use much real BP as there are few outlets for it around here. SW
