This jacket will fit much tighter than the stingray. I am 6'1 200 pounds and have a 35 inch waist. I have the SL in large and there is enough room for the atom lt or the montbell down inner parka (L) underneath it. The large SL is not big enough to layer for winter weather.

The Stingray, as is the case with most of the Arcteryx snowsports jackets, has a relaxed fit cut, while the Alpha series of jackets has a slimmer, more athletic fit cut to them. I wear a medium in either, but there is definitely a little less room in my Alpha, than in my Arcteryx ski jackets (the Sidewinder jackets for example). However, I still have enough room to comfortably wear layers underneath my Alpha LT, which should be very similar to the Alpha SL.
