I am wondering if anyone has any information on the ties between increasing sight radius and accuracy? Something similar to the Ballistics by the Inch would be great, but difficult to accomplish, so not sure its out there. I'm really wondering if there are tiers of sight radii (an exponential relationship) or if its more linear.
For example, are 20'' barreled AR15s markedly more accurate than 16'' AR15s, but the difference between 11.5'' and 16'' AR15s is not nearly as much?
Or for handguns, are 4'' revolvers way more accurate than 2'' revolvers, but the 6'' gun is only slightly more accurate than the 4'' (tiered)? Or is the increase in accuracy from 2'' to 4'' equal to the increase from 4'' to 6'' (linear)?
Edit: I get that this is a subjective question and will differ person to person.
