When someone talks about 'Inherent Accuracy' I immedately think of .22LR/.22 WMR or the great granddaddy of the 'Super' .22 center fires, the .218 Bee.
Both are 'Long' compaired to diameter of the bore,
Both are light weight bullets compared with modern offerings,
Both stabilize (sleep) at their respective nominal velocities,
Both have fairly 'Slow' twist rate barrels compaired with modern offerings.
35 to 45 grain bullets in a .218 Bee is laser accurate out of 1:14" twist barrel,
While 1:14" twist barrel is unsuitable for heavier bullets.
Average muzzle velocity of the .218 bee is slightly slower than .223 Rem,
And the original .223 Rem had a 1:14" twist rate, but was intended for 'Varmint' weight bullets.
As people used heavier bullets, the twist rate had to increase to stabilize those bullets, which has got completely out of hand in my opinion...
When I'm building a .223 Rem. chambered varmint rifle (pin point accurate out to about 400 yards) I'm usually looking for a barrel that matches the lighter weight varmint bullets, say no more than 1:10" twist rate.
The light weight bullet will loose velocity to wind resistance fairly quickly, so I say 400 yards, and around here you normally can't see varmints more than 400 yards (rolling hills, brush), So the round & rifle match the application.
When someone wants to shoot 600 yard targets, heavier bullets, faster twist rate, relatively the same muzzle velocity.
As Unclenick said, getting, and maintaining pressure until the bullet exits the barrel is a big deal (internal ballistics), so the 600 yard shooter isn't nessairaly going to shoot the same powder a slower twist rate/lighter bullet shooter is going to use to achieve the same muzzle velocity.
That's why we do 'Ladder' tests to find out what small changes in powder best works with the bullet/barrel we are using.
All things being EXACTLY equal, with the exception of twist rate, the slower twist barrel will show more muzzle velocity,
BUT,
That is a therotical question, and added velocity certainly isn't a reason/consideration for choosing a slower barrel twist rate.
WAY too many other factors to consider into the mix to focus on velocity alone.
