Default S&W Revolver Chamber Throats?

Has anyone ever needed to open up the throats on a S&W Revolver?

Only one S&W revolver, but a bunch of Rugers. I opened throats on a 629 Mountain Gun from .428" to .431". My .45 Colt Ruger NMBHs were typically .449" or so, sometimes oval or other interesting shapes, and they were all recut to .4525".
