Just how much difference does barrel length make regarding precision of the pistol - the ability to group shots closely together? I saw a guy once (admittedly he was an expert) shoot unbelievably tight groups at 20 yards using a snubbie. The difference was he had put on some contraption that gave him a much longer sighting plane. His point was that sighting plane was everything, barrel length inconsequential. Not having seen this addressed as yet (maybe I missed it) in any gun magazines using a Ransom rest, I wondered if anyone here has looked into it?
