Accuracy, or more properly precision, is more dependent on barrel/projectile match and the quality of ammunition used than any generic bullet weight generalization. While a certain weight will likely shoot better in your firearm the only to know is trial and error short of using a known combination. Even when using a known combination most competition shooters, or their gunsmiths/armorers, extensively test. For example, the AMU uses a KKM 1-18 barrel with made to spec 115gr Atlanta Arms ammo in their Beretta's, but you can be sure each one of those guns is tested hard before being cycled into competition.
Will you see any difference at 7yd, not a chance. 20yd, maybe. 50yd, yes, but only if you can consistently hold a 3" group at that distance anyways. I certainly can't.

Better with respect to velocity and accuracy.
If you want power with a heavier bullet - slower powder
If you want accurate medium power with a heavier bullet, instead of using a reduced load of slow powder, use a fast or medium powder.
Light bullets do not do well with slow powders.

being where you are , i'd see if i couldn't look up jerry over at \mystic precision- THE MAN has forgotten about most things than we'll ever know- now if he's willing to mentor you or answer a few questions is something else i don't know- as for me personally,i use 115 for practice, if i don't have 130s ( yea i know it's a 38 super bullet but it mikes out at 355- depends on what you want to do with it

^^^^^This I prefer 124 when the option presents itself
