TABs right, sort of, I don't know about MORE accurate, although Frank has a good point, but I was listening to some one, (Either MB or Tom Gresham) talking about shooting a J frame with Crimson Trace grips and the point made was that once the sight radius variable was removed there was no differance in accuracy between 2 inch and 6 inch barrels.

My understanding is that it has to do with the vibrations of the barrel.

assuming you can put enought spin on the bullet.

With my eyes it goes like this 6 & 8 inch barrles make it hard for me to see front and back sights plus target.  With rifles and 5.5 and under handguns I can see both sights and the target.

Yes, he's right to an extent. There are many variables. Bullet weight, velocity, harmonics (more in rifles) etc.

Example: I had a Ruger Super Blackhawk with a 10 1/2" barrel that I sighted in point of aim, point of impact at 25 yards with 200 grain .44 specials. I switched to 258 grain specials and they wouldn't even hit the 2' x 2' target at the same range.
Barrel length and recoil effected point of impact. The bullet was so slow getting out of the barrel, that muzzle rise threw impact off target.

See I have to close my right eye, cock my head and use my left eye to shoot anything past about 50 yds.  other wise its a blur.

The furthest that I have ever shot my Glock 26 is 50 yards...... But I could gong the steel silhouette like it was at 15 feet.

My buddy (who is a rather inexperienced shooter) couldn't hit it with his .38 snubbie to save his life.... He thought it was for sure because the barrel was so short..... He handed me the gun, and after missing the first shot, I rang the steel with the next four.
