More Weight = Higher Sectional Density
To illustrate higher sectional density bullets with a .224" diameter see below:
Bullet Weight versus Sectional Density
1. 100 grains = 0.285
2. 125 grains = 0.356
3. 150 grains = 0.427
4. 175 grains = 0.498
5. 200 grains = 0.569
Sure, a 200gr. bullet with a .224" diameter has what appears to be a great SD number but which case do you plan on seating down into?
