Is it ok to shoot FFF in my inline A&H ? Will I notice any difference ?

I have always shot T7 FF, but wanted to give the Shockeys Gold a try,
purchased the FFF by accident.

Any feedback is appreciated.

For American Pioneer, Shockey's Gold, and Goex Pinnacle you should use the FFFG. The FFG is supposed to be too big to meter right through powder measures. I've never tried it since I prefer Triple Seven.
 
When shooting FFF make sure you reduce the load volume by approx. 15%. Say for example you were shooting 100 grains of FF, then you would use 85 grains of FFF. I have begun to use FFF in all my rifles and am just reducing the load by 15%. I think that FFF has more pressure when ignighted because it burns faster (don't quote me on that). Good luck.
