Default Barrel lenght vs powder

Guys this might be a stupid question but I have to ask, a friend told me with a shorter barrel center fire rifle that you should use a faster burning powder and with a longer barrel you should use a slower buring powder, is there any truth to this and
if so is there any way I can determine the burn rate other that looking at the ballistic tables in my reloading manual?
Thx for all the advice.
