I think SD is a very useful tool, but as pointed out, not in the absence of other 'data' or testing. One often touted point relating to SD is that high SD or long for calibre bullets are better for straight line penetration, not just deep penetration. This is clearly an important factor, for instance, in brain shots with solids on elephant. Here again though, appropriate velocity, rifling twist and bullet construction are also fundamental.
