There was never a "lemonsqueezer" made in 32 RF, only 32 CF, so it could not have been too large. If you mean you tried a 32 RF, that would also not be correct since the casing on the rimfire cartridge was smaller than the 32 S&W. The bullet diameter for the 32 rimfire tip-up revolvers is around .316" to .318" and the casing was the same diameter since the round used a heeled bullet like the 22 RF. The 32 S&W and 32 Long had a bullet diameter of .312", but a case diameter of .335" since that caliber was designed with the bullet fitting inside the case.

Those dimensions tell you that a 32 Short RF will drop right into the chamber of a 32 Safety revolver, but a 32 S&W will not fit into the chamber of a 32 RF tip-up revolver.
