There are multiple reasons one might choose a lower B.C. bullet:

1. Cost
2. Accuracy
3. External ballistics
4. On-target performance ...


If the higher BC projectile happens to offer all the required #4 OTP, (and there are bullets that can and do that for some people),
that person can pass on NPs and not be at a loss.

Take the popular 300win-
If someone thinks they lost their prized elk because they didn't use a 200NP or 220NP instead of the 210 LR-AB
then I would be inclined to put it down to poor shooting than poor choice of bullet.
