Yes, I've read where the SOCOM barrel is a winner accuracy-wise. Not a sniper/"match" barrel for sure, but the stiffness as compared to a standard M4 profile does provide a decent degree of "combat rifle" accuracy. The ability to maintain a higher rate of fire than it's predecessor is definitely a plus if you needed it.
I have an entire carbine built around a SOCOM barrel from Grant (FSB shaved down by my buddy the gunsmith) and it is roughly a 2.5-3MOA shooter for me shooting Mk318 with an Aimpoint T2 from a sandbag.
