None of the above. Pellets reportedly don't work too good in revolvers. Find some Goex fffg and you'll have a more harmonious outcome.

I shoot the same revolver as you. And it is the same target
model as you describe. I even shoot the same powder as I
found clean up was much easier, and I could shoot longer.
My load is 30 grains of APP 3f, a felt wad, then the .451 ball
and then I grease the cylinders to avoid the chain fires. I find
this a lot of fun to shoot on a nice afternoon. Also the power
of that load is surprising as well. That is a two inch spruce
plank I was shooting through.
