Saturday I was at BPS today debating on the Blackhorn powder or the 777 pellets. Ended up going with the pellets for now, but I was wondering what you all prefer and why? I have a feeling I'll be back for the powder after my range session.

I shoot powder because it's cheaper and you can tweek loads if necessary. Treefarmer

If your gun will shoot 100 grains consistently. Then no need for loose powder. If not then youll need loose powder to tweak your loads. Both of my inlines shoot 100gr 777 pellets perfectly
