[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1541569, member: 69192"] This is [U][I]exactly[/I][/U] the reason for making this thread!! I was not thinking/stating that [U][I]sectional density[/I][/U] was the catch all of ballistics and considerations for a particular bullet. What the thread was about is that I read all about muzzle velocity, muzzle energy and ballistic coefficients, however I do not read too much about sectional density, thus "[U][I]does anyone ever look at sectional density when considering a particular cartridge/bullet combination[/I]"[/U] thread was posted. Mostly all the posts are about muzzle velocity compared with ballistic coefficient. I hunt and I am as concerned about ballistic coefficient and equally concerned about how much penetration I am going to get with a particular weight bullet when considering what bullet I would like to hunt with to get the job done.
