cartridge selection

Lets say I wanted to push a 50gr .224 cal. pill 2800fps. Putting bullet weight selection aside, am i better off using say a 218 bee and loading up to it's max or should I select a .222 and load it down? Yes, I know the 222 is a better choice, just wondering if you are better loading up or down for a cal.
 
Depends, if you are looking for a little more flexibility with your chosen bullet then the .222 would do nicely to find an accuracy node around your target velocity,might be a little faster, might be a little slower but the Bee might be pressed to find a node around the target velocity with a heavier bullet.
