Unless it is really sloppy, it is pretty normal on that model. That is why Smith puts a forcing cone in the barrel. The cylinder is centered automatically as the bullet leaves the cylinder throat and enters the barrel.
It can be tuned out, but the only time I will do it involves guaranteeing perfect cylinder alignment with each of the 6 cylinders. Since it is almost unheard of, I usually will set it up for near perfect alignment with 5 out of 6 chambers, and mark the one that is out most.
To be honest, you are better off to leave it alone and let the forcing cone do it’s job.
