All other things being equal, a shorter barrel will give you better MOA accuracy than a longer barrel. It is true that you won't get as much velocity from the shorter barrel, but the shorter barrel will be "stiffer" than a longer barrel. That means that the vibration induced oscillations will be smaller for the shorter barrel rifle, and that will give you tighter groups.
