    SECTIONAL DENSITY

    Hello everyone,
    quick question, i am a bit confused regards bullets sectional density, can someone clarify if a hi sectional density is more desirable than a low or vice versa?
    I been comparing the numbers at the Hornady 6.5cal projectiles such as Amax(140gn, S/D= 287), SST(140gn, S/D= 287), ELD-M(140gn, S/D= 287) and ELD-X(143gn, S/D= 293) and other than bullet construction what would make the so call "Match" bullets not to be "desirable/recommended/considered" for hunting(medium to large game)?

    Thank you in advance.
