All you can do is try both the powders, using a bench rest to see what kind of groups you get with both. If the gun shoots better using 3Fg powder, and its easier to clean, then use it. Remember that most guns you buy are not lapped at the factory. They are pretty coursely finished on the lands, and this contributes to retaining powder residue. After you have shot several hundred balls through it, it polishes out a bit, and then the residue diminishes.You can also lap your barrel using lapping compound on a tight cleaning patch( you may have to use two of them on your cleaning jag) to polish the barrel. Run the lapping patch down to the bottom of the barrel, and then come up 1/4th of the length of the barrel. Do 50 slow strokes back and forth just in this bottom 1/4 of the barrel. Change the patch or add more lapping compound any time you feel the stroke becoming easier. After those 50 strokes, mark the half way point on the barrel, and this time stroke from the breechplug to the half way point, 50 times. That will polish the back 1/4 100 times and the second 1/4 50 times. Again, all compound, or change your patches any time you feel the strokes becomeing easier. Then mark the 3/4 point on the barrel, and stroke from the breechplug to the 3/4 mark 50 times. Finally stroke the entire length of the barrel 50 times. You may find yourself adding lapping compound as often as every 10 strokes, doing this last stretch.
What you will accomplish is to put a slight choke in your barrel, which always helps accuracy, while polishing the lands, and to a lesser extent, the grooves in the barrel. You will feel the difference the next time you run a PRB down the barrel. You should also see a difference in your used patches, and in your group sizes. Clean the lapping compound out of the barrel using both soap and water, and denatured alcohol. Then oil your barrel for storage until you get back out to the range to shoot it. Always clean the oil or lube out of your barrel before you get to the field or range. Make sure there is no congealed oil or lube in the breech, and if you are shooting a patent breech system, that uses a powder chamber, by all means, rinse this out with alcohol to dissolve the grease and oil and get it out of you barrel. Check the flash channel and nipple to see that they are also free of grease and oil. Denatured alcohol is a wonderful, powerful solvent for this kind of work, and makes short work of this chore.
