Barnes Tipped TSX ammunition features a 100-percent copper body with rings cut into the shank. A polymer tip boosts the ballistic coefficient, improves long-range ballistics and provides fast expansion. These revolutionary bullets are made of 100% copper and contain no lead. Each box contains 50 rounds of .224 diameter, 62 grain spitzer boat tail ammunition, with a ballistic coefficient of 0.294 and sectional density of 0.177.
Since its introduction in 2003, the Barnes TSX bullet has earned a reputation as “the perfect hunting bullet.” The Tipped TSX features the same 100-percent copper body with multiple rings cut into the shank and delivers the same accuracy and terminal performance—but with an added polymer tip that boosts BC and improves long-range ballistics. The tip and a re-engineered nose cavity provide even faster expansion.
These projectiles deliver complete penetration, virtually 100-percent weight retention and four razor-sharp cutting petals that double bullet diameter, creating more internal damage than competing designs. Barnes recommends 1:8 barrel twist or faster. This is unloaded ammunition. Precision reloaders seeking superior hunting performance will find these .224″ projectiles deliver the legendary Barnes reliability and terminal performance in a lead-free platform.
