A barrel weight changes the barrel harmonics, so yes, it might change current accuracy. It can get worse, better or stay the same.
It is a tricky part to get it right.

If you shoot by the ISSF rules, you can always put an extra weight under the stock. That is a more "safe" way to go, in my opinion.
