I'd expect leading, if present, to be readily visible in a revolver in general swinging the cylinder out of the way, and especially looking at the ports in a ported barrel.
Not only this, but whatever load data is being used for velocity comparison(s) should be checked for the reference associated with that data (barrel length, firearm type especially WRT test barrel with no gap for a revolver use load), plus I haven't tried specifically to find any but thus far I haven't come across load data generated using a ported barrel (but such may be out there, just not on typical powder or projectile company load data).
