No, there isn't.

Cannot be answered without knowing your quarry and type of shooting. For doves, not necessarily. For woodcock, probably so. Two inches more barrel length is of vastly less importance than choke selection. My best woodcock day ever was using a 28 gauge, 30" barreled, FAIR Verona with open choke tubes in place, a SK and an IC, as I recall.
