I get mine from Wilson & Wilson 01843 822242
charges £6.20 p&p so you are looking at £36 ish but to me its only once a year so no sweat. Would cost me more than a tenner in petrol to go and collect it and its with me next day without hassle.
I had a long chat with the people at Hodgdons in the US about 777. When they designed it the equipment said it was volume for volume producing the same energy as BP. However in field tests shooters were chronoing m/v up on BP. The outcome of further test show that it burns quicker so for the same m/v the recommendation is to reduce powder by 15%. Interestingly energy and breech pressure are then less for the same m/v.
The longarm hunters in the US use it vol for vol for the flater trajectory and harder hitting of a faster projectile.
