My mp5k I had, with a pistol length barrel, could shoot as far as my m4 with 510mm inner. Both around 400fps both with promy flat hops. There was maybe a slightly better grouping at max range with the longer barrel. But the stock on the long gun could likely be the difference.

First of all. The barrel length does effect accuracy but no where did I say that is where most of your accuracy comes from. I was adressing what length is best for accuracy and that is all. The optimal length is 450mm, the difference between a 500 mm barrel and a 375mm barrel with be hardly noticeable. I did not adress bore size, hop up, or materials.
The OP asked what length is best and that's the answer.
