Barnes TSX Bullets: Precision Engineering Meets Hunting Performance

The Barnes TSX (Triple-Shock X) represents a fundamental shift in bullet design philosophy. Built from 100 percent copper, these projectiles eliminate fragmentation entirely while delivering the penetration and expansion characteristics serious hunters demand.

Key Features

  • All-Copper Construction: No lead core means no fragmentation and superior weight retention
  • Controlled Expansion: Expands on impact to create four razor-sharp petals for deep cutting capability
  • Engineered Relief Rings: Precisely cut rings in the bullet shank act as relief valves, reducing bore pressure and copper fouling while improving accuracy
  • Superior Penetration: 28% deeper penetration than traditional lead-core bullets
  • 100% Weight Retention: Maintains original bullet weight through bone and tissue for consistent ballistics

Performance Specifications

These .224 caliber, 62-grain boat tail bullets are engineered for rifles requiring precision and reliability. The boat tail design improves ballistic coefficient for flatter trajectories and better long-range performance.

Reloading Recommendations

For optimal accuracy, seat bullets 0.03 to 0.07 inches off the lands, adjusting based on your specific rifle's chamber. This range accommodates most modern sporting rifles while maintaining consistent performance.

The Bottom Line

If you're serious about one-shot kills and consistent performance in the field, the Barnes TSX delivers the penetration, expansion, and reliability that separate ethical hunters from the rest. Fifty rounds per box.
