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. UD
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.
Again, To a degree.
May I suggest you take your pistols. put them in a vise, turn the handle
20 times (righty tighty), then go dryfire them all you want, Or you
could take the womens handgun course I give every few months. Among
other things. UD
Please. I've taken courses and in fact I'm hoping to take an combat
pistol course at the SigSauer Academy. What skills are you offering that
I haven't learned?

I love your "To a degree" bull****. It is meaningless. Sight radius is
important when you are factoring in the optical error of humans, but it
has nothing to do with the inherent accuracy or inaccuracy of a firearm.
Put a firearm in a rest, sight it in properly, and if it is a decent
piece of goods with decent ammo, you can put your rounds into a paper
target with the holes touching each other, so long as you are within the
firearm's best range for accuracy.
Oh...and semi-autos tend to be more accurate than six-shooters. Surely
an expert like you knows why...
And it's not "To a degree."

I said, I'm not an expert "To a degree"
but I do agree, you should take the SigSour academy course. maybe you
can learn to shoot those Ruger Vaquero's you got last Xmas. UD
BTW, WTF shoots bench rest?
