I have shot them both alot now and for whatever diff. there is it isnt enough for the inconvenience....
PELLETS!

I prefer loose and this is my opionion only. 1. I shoot more consistant. 2. I can tinker with to get a more accurate load. 3. cost.

Goex 3fg black powder. Loose, of course.

Ever tried any KIK brand Wobbly? It's real blackpowder that's made in Slovenia. Read a comparison test with it out of a few different rifles and the KIK was showing about 100 fps faster than the Goex. So in my last order I got 11 pounds of it. Figured if I didn't like it in my rifles I'd burn it up in the revolvers.

Pellets in the newer rifles and powder in the traditional.

Nope, never tried the KIK brand. Pretty much use Goex and Swiss depending on the application. Goex is my go to powder in most of my muzzle loaders. I have been using Swiss fffg in my little .32 caliber target pistol with good results and it burns very clean. Been also using Swiss null-b for priming in my flintlocks. Good stuff but pricey. Over the years I've used Elephant and Wano also. Hard to beat real black powder.

Wobbly I figured at $11 a pound I'd try it. Like you, Goex and Swiss is generally what I use...do have Wano here too, but don't use it much anymore except in revolvers. Yep...that Swiss Null B is good stuff...it's all I use for priming.

Powder in speed loaders ,

Always used pellets, but did buy some Blackhorn at BP yesterday and going to give that a try. Tried loose 777 a couple years ago but didn't shoot a whole lot differant than the pellets in my gun but I really didn't play around with it that much either.
