Barnes VOR-TX 12 Gauge 2.75" 438gr Expander Slug

Barnes VOR-TX Expander Slug Shotshells

The VOR-TX represents Barnes' commitment to precision ammunition engineering, bringing rifle-grade performance to shotgun hunting. These 438-grain slugs combine innovative design with proven field results.

Design & Construction

All-Copper Construction: The solid copper body ensures consistent expansion and superior weight retention through the entire wound channel.

Expander Tip Technology: The polymer-tipped nose cavity is engineered to open instantly upon impact, expanding to nearly double diameter. This creates six razor-sharp petals that generate a wide, devastating wound channel.

Terminal Performance

• Instant expansion on impact for rapid energy transfer
• High weight retention maintains bullet momentum deep into the target
• Deep penetration ensures consistent performance across varying distances and conditions
• Effective at both standard and magnum velocities

Ballistic Advantages

These slugs deliver higher velocity than traditional designs, resulting in a flatter trajectory and improved accuracy. The combination of speed and precision makes them ideal for hunters who demand both distance capability and terminal reliability.

Practical Application

Whether you're hunting deer or other medium to large game, VOR-TX slugs are engineered for quick, humane kills. The proven on-game performance record speaks to Barnes' dedication to hunter success and ethical game taking.
