I use Hoppes #9 BP lube and fire strings of up to 4 dozen shots without having to swab. I DO often swab the bore, however, after every ten or twenty shots but it is not needed with Hoppes, or even with spit. Some people swab after EACH shot and don't mind it a bit. Also the tighter the load the less fouling is left after each shot; the tight prb pushes the fouling of each shot down when seated. Hoppes makes this easy as it DISSOLVES the fouling, too.[links]
All black powder shooters know that when you deal with Black Powder that the job is gonna be messy and foul a barrel quicker than the black powder substitutes will and require more swabbing. BUT . That fun of black powder and gosh I sure love the smell of black powder at the range in the evening time
Now if you are talking about shooting bullets, that's another matter. Likely you will find less fouling with FF rather than FFF, but it comes down to the brand of powder, how much of it you use, type of bullet, type and amount of lube, if you use an over powder wad or not, what that wad is, etc, etc. Only your own rifle can tell you by using it.
“The fascination of shooting as a sport depends almost wholly on whether you are at the right or wrong end of the gun.”

< Gnoahhh >I agree with dropping the Vaseline. I have always been told not to use petroleum based lubes , cleaners nor bore butter in a muzzleloader. I guess I'll just have to do some experimenting and try and find what I can use that I can fire at least 5 shots without having to swab the barrel and have to pound the patch&ball down the barrel. I've have gotten all types of lube recipes for all kinds of folks. even from an expert muzzleloader crafter. I'm gonna try the "Stumpy's Moose Snot" recipe that is provided above,And see how that works. Do you think that just straight Crisco would be the best bet ?[links]

Heat beeswax in a soup can set a pot of water or a double boiler. I keep my beeswax in a one pound coffee can and measure out what I need by melting it and pouring it into measuring cups. Add just enough water so the inner can does not begin to float (should be just short of the lube level in the can). Heat the water to a low boil. In a separate can, add the castor oil and Murphy's oil soap (cold). Once the beeswax is melted, swap the castor oil can in the pot of water for the beeswax. Add the beeswax to the oils. It will clump up. Stir with an ice tea spoon as the mixture heats up. When it fully melts there will be a scum that floats to the top and just won't mix in. Be patient. DO NOT COOK THE MIXTURE. Once the solids are dissolved there is no need to heat further. Skim the scum off. Remove the mix from the heat and wipe the water off the outside (so it won't drip into the container when you pour it out). FINAL TOP SECRET STEP: Add a teaspoon of Murphy's Oil Soap and stir vigorously. This last step makes the lube frothy and smooth - really adds to the appearance; though it doesn't seem to matter to the function of the lube. Clamp the can in the jaws of a vice-grip pliers and pour into the waiting tins. Allow to cool a half hour. more
