a cylinder so tight it was squeezing my bullets down smaller than the bore. An ancient .38/40 with 0.398" throats, best I could tell back then. The bore was 0.403". It shot all over the place and leaded cast bullets badly. An extreme case.
Other than that I have occasionally had a small issue where the cylinder throats were a thou too tight to allow the projectiles I wanted to use. Either you don't use that diameter/type projectile or quietly mod it yourself.
Too many armchair experts get guys all whipped up into a frenzy over the teeny dimensions. If it shoots the ammo you load accurately don't fret or obsess over it too much.
As mentioned, shooting wild groups or key-holing is another matter. As is, the ammo not fitting the gun. You just fix it. It's all part of the fun and is so satisfying to have victory over an extreme problem.

- normally I see the 22 LR listed as a .222 bore, the 22 mag - gary reeder, 2020-02-15, 22:53

Same or a bit larger than the bore. (nm)
