    1st hand of our regular home game.

    5k stacks, blinds 25/50, 15 min levels.

    It's folded to me on the button and i make it 175 to go with 77.

    SB folds and BB calls.

    Flop 875 rainbow.

    BB leads for 200, i raise to 700, he 3bets to 1400.

    Any thoughts on ranges, and best plays would be appreciated. Thanks!

    idk, ranging hands in home games is like predicting the weather 10 days in advance...in other words pretty fucking unreliable.

    in home games, i tend to go with my read on whomever i'm playing against (since i presume you've played together before). in high school, a couple of my friends would have never folded 69 to any raise, so that's definitely in his range. with no reads, i cant fold here. it's possible he defended with 69 or 46, but i'd be pretty confident i'm ahead here. if not, you still have about 35% equity since you can boat/quad up.
