Knowing absolutely nothing about SAA I'd be grateful for help in identifying the bullets in the attached pictures and comment as to whether any are unusual. TIA

The three on the left look like cartridges for percussion revolvers. (Edit. The second might just be a paper patched bullet as it looks a little too short to contain powder below the bullet and doesn’t appear to have a tear tape).

Forth and fifth from the left are .577 Pritchett for Enfield rifled muskets.

the last two I don’t know.

Thanks for that so far. And yes, the second one in doesn't have a tear tape.
 
The one on the far right is a 20mm sub-cal Tracer projectile, goes in a very short case (usually Aluminium)
