Yeah, that would probably be a good choice. Considering how difficult it is to put the percussion caps on the cylinder when the cylinder is installed on the gun, I don't foresee it being a good choice if you anticipate needing a quick reload. But, I guess it is small enough that you could carry two (one on each side) if you were concerned with that. Personally, I wouldn't even mind it if you needed to use a tool to be inserted through the muzzle end of the cylinder in order to remove the spent primers.
Not a perfect fit for the holster, but it still feels snug.
And the obligatory cute puppy photo (blame it on my wife).
