Barnes TSX .284 160gr Flat Base Bullets 50/Box
All-copper Barnes TSX bullets for 7mm rifles deliver deep penetration, 100% weight retention, and four razor-sharp petals on impact. Engineered rings reduce pressure and copper fouling while improving accuracy.
Barnes TSX Bullets: Premium All-Copper Performance
The Barnes Triple-Shock X (TSX) represents a significant advancement in hunting bullet technology. Manufactured from 100 percent copper, these .284 caliber, 160-grain projectiles deliver the performance serious hunters demand.
Design and Construction
The TSX features precisely engineered relief rings cut into the bullet shank. These rings serve as pressure relief valves as the bullet travels down the bore, resulting in three critical advantages:
- Improved accuracy through reduced pressure spikes
- Higher velocity potential without pressure concerns
- Reduced copper fouling in your rifle barrel
Terminal Performance
Upon impact, the TSX expands to create four razor-sharp petals with exceptional cutting capability. The bullet's all-copper construction ensures:
- 100% weight retention for maximum penetration
- 28% deeper penetration compared to traditional lead-core bullets
- No fragmentation, maintaining energy transfer through bone and dense tissue
- Reliable expansion on game at various velocities
For the Serious Hunter
These bullets are purpose-built for hunters who demand one-shot reliability on big game. The combination of deep penetration and controlled expansion makes the TSX an excellent choice for elk, deer, and similar game animals.
Seating Recommendation: For best accuracy, seat bullets 0.03 to 0.07 inches off the lands, adjusting based on your specific rifle's chamber.
