Yes, what you are suggesting is plausible and worth further testing

When creating a test mission, there are five possible crew rankings that can be assigned to each unit (in Mission Editor, Properties window, under Performance, VeterrancyLevel): Poor, Novice, Competent, Veteran and Elite.

I don't remember if it is possible to modify these rankings in game through mission options panel, but there is a quick way to do it with notepad: open mission's mis file, and look for CrewRating entries. There is one of them for each unit (incuding plyer's sub). 0 stands for Poor, 1 for Novice, and so on. By altering these values, it is possible to check how units' rating affects their gun's aiming, letting any other parameter unaltered
