Not sure exactly what you own. Model numbers weren't assigned until 1957. What became the Model 25 was the 1955 .45 Target Model. The previous .45 target revolver was the 1950 .45 Target Model. The 1950 had a light, tapered barrel, like a M27 or M28. The target shooters of the day wanted more weight out front and the 1955, which has a heavy, non-tapered barrel, like the M29 and M57, was introduced in 1955.

So, which do you have?
