I've never been the most traditional of BP shooters, I have used both Clean shot and Clear shot with good results, neither is corrosive at all, I have let a 1858 remington sit for quite a while without a cleaning, monitering it for any rust, and none appeared.
I do prefer Clean shot, as it is a little easier to work with (Large grey grains),
Most of this has been in BP revolvers, and in an old 44 WCF Colt Lightning
As was stated above 777 is corrosive, it is basically a hotter burning pyrodex.
