I prefer to use the pictured loading stand to hold the revolver while I fill all six chambers with BP and a felt wad on top of the BP. Then I pick up the revolver with my left hand and use my right hand to place a ball on top of each chamber then use the revolver's lever to seat the ball. All six balls are seated only after all six chambers have received their BP and wad. I find this to be the most efficient way to do it with regard to time spent to load.
