Compared to poor regulation, yes.  Compared to a well-engineered zener 
shunt screen regulator, probably not a significant improvement.  To 
arrive at good linearity with a 4cx250B/R/BC/7203, load for less screen 
current, use maximal anode supply V. and add c. 5-ohms of RF-NFB R in the 
cathode (Rk).  See Fig 10 on my Web site.
