Have used the triple 7 pellets, but not with powerbelts. The powder is great, a bit hotter than Pyrodex.

Took a big fat doe last year with 100 grains of 777 and 295 grain Powerbelt. Complete pass thru and she didn't go 25 yards. I am shooting a NEF 50 caliber. Works great for me.

I use 3 pellets of 777 and a 225 grain arrow tip power belt in my 45 cal. Encore. I have the scope dead on @ 100 yards and they only drop 4.5 inches @ 200 yards. Very accurate, no problems finding any of the deer I've shot because they don't go very far if you can hit where your aiming. Going to experiment with loose powder later this month.

I use the 100 gr. triple 7 with 180 grain powerbelt. Shot tree during the ml week in NC and none ran over 10 yards. The gun had been sitting in the safe since Nov last year and fired it to "unload" it on Sat., gun went off first primer and was still on the mark.
