If you're using a short inner barrel with a cylinder meant for a longer inner barrel, you subject your gearbox to more stress (projectile has long since left the barrel, and thus, there is no longer any backpressure on the piston head to reduce impact on the gearbox), ROF is slowed down, and velocities are typically not as high nor as consistent.
