Barnes VOR-TX 20 Gauge 3" 250gr Expander Slug

Barnes VOR-TX Shotgun Slugs: Precision Performance for the Serious Hunter

The VOR-TX Expander Tipped slug represents the pinnacle of shotgun ammunition engineering. Built on Barnes' reputation for bullet innovation, these 20 gauge shells deliver the accuracy and terminal performance you'd expect from a rifle round.

Design and Construction

All-Copper Construction: The slug is crafted from solid copper, eliminating lead and delivering consistent, reliable performance shot after shot.

Polymer-Tipped Design: The innovative nose cavity features a polymer tip that initiates expansion instantly upon impact, opening into six razor-sharp petals that create a devastating wound channel.

Ballistic Performance

• Velocity: 1,850 feet per second for a flat trajectory and extended effective range
• Weight: 250 grains for deep penetration and momentum retention
• Expansion: The Expander Tip doubles the slug's diameter upon impact, maximizing energy transfer

Terminal Performance

The engineering is straightforward and proven: expansion creates a wide wound channel, while exceptional weight retention maintains bullet momentum through the entire cavity. This combination ensures deep penetration and maximum destruction of tissue, bone, and vital organs for quick, ethical kills.

Practical Advantages

These slugs function effectively at both low and high velocities, making them versatile for various hunting situations. The precision factory loading ensures consistent performance, eliminating variables associated with handloading while delivering handloaded accuracy.

Specifications: 20 gauge, 3-inch shell, 250-grain slug, 5 rounds per box
