I would say very likely , yes the change in hull will change pressures also . The testing I've done shorter hulls always produced more pressure . Tom Arburst told me less space for gas to expand = more pressure .

Also with the testing I had done using TSS , which always required the use of fillers , the more soft fillers ( felt , cushion wads ) = lower pressures and less consistency . As opposed to harder filler ( Nitro cards and cork ) = more pressure .

But don't take my word for it you can always call Tom Arburst , he can explain it better than me.
