velocity vs barrel length

Quick question (maybe dumb too), does the length of the barrel effect the velocity of a bullet?
For example if I look at a ballistic chart for a 243 and it says it has a velocity of 3200fps using a 24" barrel, should I expect more or less velocity with a 26" barrel?
thanks
