Barnes TSX .416 Caliber 300 Grain Bullets

Barnes Triple-Shock X-Bullets: Purpose-Built for Big Game

The Barnes Triple-Shock X-Bullet represents a fundamental shift in hunting bullet design. Machined from 100 percent copper, these projectiles deliver the kind of performance that separates ethical hunters from the rest.

Design and Performance

Expansion and Penetration

• Controlled expansion creates four razor-sharp petals upon impact
• Deep cutting capability ensures maximum tissue damage
• Penetrates dense bone and tissue reliably
• Retains 100 percent of original bullet weight—no fragmentation

Why This Matters

Weight retention is critical. When a bullet fragments, you lose penetration and energy transfer becomes unpredictable. The Barnes TSX maintains its integrity through the entire wound channel, ensuring consistent, devastating performance on large game animals.

Specifications

Seating Recommendations

Barnes recommends seating depth between 0.03 to 0.07 inches from the lands, depending on your specific rifle. Work up loads carefully, as seating depth affects pressure and accuracy.

The Bottom Line

For hunters who demand one-shot kills and refuse to compromise on ethics or performance, the Barnes TSX delivers. These are serious bullets for serious hunting.
