That's pretty much the theory.
The idea is that because the tighter bore places the wall closer to the projectile, it ends up bouncing around inside the barrel more times than it would in a larger bore barrel, causing it to affect the flight trajectory of the BB.
A larger bore barrel, on the other hand, will allow more air to surround the BB and cushion it as it is projected out of the barrel and reduce the number of times it hits the walls.
Again... that's the theory, but my "tests" prove otherwise in the example I posted above. Also, that test is done with a pistol held by hand, no rest and with no magnified optics. Take that for what it's worth, as there are several variables at play.
