There must be a million ways to shoot BP. Over the years though, I have opted for simpler methods that work well. These days I only shoot true BP. Costs drove me to that mostly. I don't do anything unusual, except maybe shoot big lube bullets that I cast myself. With that much lube, I have little hard fouling issues, the fouling stays soft and clean up is a breeze with Windex with vinegar. I shoot multi day events and never felt the need to clean anything except the shotgun. There I have a problem of using plastic wads and no lube. I find that if after a days shooting I shoot a round or two of smokeless shotgun through each barrel and then hit it with the windex, rip a paper towel in two, then they come clean in one or at the most two passes.
Longrange shooting in 38-55 and 45-70 I use milk carton wads under the bullet and on top of the powder. My bullets are fairly soft and the wax wads help preserve the bullet base, since I shoot 777 loads for long range. Clean up the same. Windex.
Just the way I do it and there are many other ways to obtain the same results.
