SKU: 1273
Availability: InStock

Hodgdon Triple Seven Loose black Powder is a revolutionary black powder substitute made from gluconic acid, a sugar-based propellant that is more efficient than Blackpowder or Pyrodex. The powder is sulfur-free so leaves no noxious odor after firing, plus it burns efficiently leaving fewer residues to simplify cleaning.

Triple Seven™ Powder produces the highest velocities by volume of any granular muzzleloading propellant, resulting in flatter trajectories and more accurate shots. This powder comes in FFFG granulation with smaller grain size intended for use in pistols or rifles of .50 caliber or smaller. Highly recommended for .31, .36 and .44 caliber revolvers.

Developed for today’s modern muzzleloader, Triple Seven™ loose powder is far more economical and is easier to ignite. For shooters who prefer loose powder to pellets, it delivers superior velocity and accuracy with less fouling. Best yet, it cleans up easily with plain water.

Hodgdon Triple Seven Loose Black Powder FAQS

What is Hodgdon Triple 7 powder used for?

Designed for shotguns and rifles, 50-caliber and larger, as well as cartridges. FFG is also usable in muskets and large-bore pistols. Hodgdon’s revolutionary granulated muzzleloading propellant that cleans up with water alone. Contains no sulfur, so there are no strong smells and clean-up is a breeze.

Is triple 7 more powerful than black powder?

They are measured volumetrically, but only Goex Clear Shot can be considered a black powder performance substitute. Triple Seven and Black Mag3 are far hotter (or more energetic) than good old black powder, and produce higher velocities and pressures.

Is Triple 7 real black powder?

Triple Seven is a volumetric substitute for black powder but produces higher velocity. To match the velocities of a traditional black powder load it is recommended to reduce the load by 15%. Still burning carbon, the carbon-based fuel burned here is from the sugar family, not from charcoal.

Is Triple 7 good powder?

777 produces more energy than black powder, and is more difficult to ignite. But it can be shot with #11s fine, unlike Blackhorn 209. You’ll likely need to work up new loads because it will be much faster

Hodgdon Triple Seven granular powders leave no sulfur odor and leave less residue in the barrel for much easier cleaning. It produces the highest velocities by volume of other granular muzzleloading propellants, and as a result produces flat trajectories.
