Another factor is your personal technique. Also, what do you mean when you say fouling. The OP stated that your barrel get so fouled that you are force to clean. Now, on rifles, I swab between each round with a seasoning patch. The bore will be reasonably clean but eventually I'm pushing a bunch of junk down the bore. Also, my cup or breech plug is building up as well. I can still load but my primer channel is closing up. My first indication is hang fires and eventually, misfires. That to me, is fouling as well. ....
On the label of 777, it says; Easy Cleaning Muzzleloading Propellant. Well, not so fast and not so easy. As much as I dislike BP, I can shoot it longer than 777 and you don't have to worry about shelf life ....
Be Safe !!!
