Looking at your picture, & thinking about it, this does seem to be the likely cause.
Is there anyway you can tell if where the cylinder wall (at the case mouth) starts to transitions to the throat is cut improperly? (see arrows in pic.)
That area looks dark in the picture. No doubt powder residue but it may be larger/deeper at that point too.
If you can pinpoint that as the problem it might be easier to get S&W to fix it for you, irregardless of whether it's a new cylinder or not.
They should also fix that large B-C gap problem they created when they poorly fitted the replacement the barrel. Why was the barrel replaced?
Send a couple of the fired cases back with the revolver also, so they can see what you're talking about.
