To a degree, Yes a 6" barrel is more accurate than the 4", What Harry
failed to mention is it all has to do with "Sight Radius"
Basically the distance between the front and rear sights, and there's
alot of variables that come into play, When I shoot a day long
competition I usually start off with my 6" barrel and end up switching
to my 4" barrel later in the day, and the reason is I'm just plain
tired.
What happens is the front sight gets wobbly in my eye due to the longer
sight radius in the 6" barrel. I'm no firearms expert, and would never
claim to be, but I do shoot a few matches a week, do all my own
reloading, and all the work on my own firearms. Among other things.

Sight radius has to do with the shooter, not the firearm. Put identical
4" and 6" barrel revolvers in pistol rests and the results against
targets at combat distances will be pretty much the same. For accuracy,
though, I prefer semi-autos.
