That could be a sign of the bolt coming up too soon, not completely droping out of the way, having the hammer placed on the safty notches on the cylinder or some one playing with the revolver.
My cylinder on my 23 year old Pietta has that scratch on one spot because I used to place my hammer on the safty notches & I would index it the same way every time "Anal I guess" but that is why mine has the scratch.
The Bolt should drop completely out of the way before the cylinder starts to rotate if it does not drop completely try loosening the trigger/bolt spring screw 1/4 turn to see if that helps, worse case scenerio will be a replacement bolt & timing it to the gun.
coming up too soon mostly means that the bolt was timed incorrectly & a replacement is necessary.
This is why you want to look at the action as the hammer is pulled back slowly to see what is going on till it is in complete lock up & ready to fire.
