That is a possibility, but it is not for certain.

I don't mean to come across wrong-

Dad started shooting the 1000 yard matches in Texas with a .308. He had pretty bad accuracy problems until he worked up a load that was right on the verge of over stretching the brass. Since then, he said he's been doing well at the match. I believe he was attributing the accuracy problems to the bullet going subsonic. Maybe he just sped it up enough at the muzzle to keep it stable/spinning due to shorter flight time.

Increase in velocity leading to better accuracy can be attributed to several possibilities.

What's the most popular bipod for this kind of long distance shooting?
