[QUOTE="iowavf, post: 4799228, member: 2798"] My TC encore I used the same BP it came with and switched to BH when it came out because I didn't like to clean my barrel after several shots using 777 pellets or pyrodex. If I zeroed it with a clean barrel then I'd have to run a wet patch followed by a couple dry patches before shooting another shot so I always zeroed it with a dirty barrel. With BH I can shoot 12 to 15 times with no difference in accuracy and it might load just a little harder but can't notice the difference like you could with 777 and the crud ring. I think it's easier to clean with regular solvent versus the hot soapy water method for other powders. My gun shot well with pellets but like fairchaser stated you can fine tune with loose powder and if choosing loose powder I'd go with BH over the others. [/QUOTE]
