Description

The Barnes VOR-TX 223 Remington ammunition delivers devastating terminal performance through its proven TSX (Triple-Shock X) bullet technology. This premium hunting load combines a 55-grain all-copper TSX flat base bullet with precision-matched powder charges for consistent accuracy and reliable expansion.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that can fragment unpredictably, the Barnes TSX bullet expands into four razor-sharp copper petals while retaining 99% of its original weight. This all-copper construction eliminates lead contamination concerns while providing deeper penetration than conventional hunting bullets. The flat base design optimizes accuracy in standard twist rate barrels commonly found in AR-15 platforms and bolt-action rifles.

Key Features

55-grain Barnes TSX all-copper bullet with four-petal expansion design
Flat base construction for enhanced accuracy in 1:9 and 1:7 twist barrels
Lead-free composition meets all hunting regulations nationwide
Factory-loaded with temperature-stable powder for consistent velocities
Brass cases suitable for reloading with proper equipment
20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
Boxer-primed cases with non-corrosive primers

Field testing demonstrates this load achieves approximately 3,240 fps muzzle velocity from a 24-inch barrel with sub-MOA accuracy potential in quality rifles. The TSX bullet maintains structural integrity through heavy bone and muscle tissue, making it effective for medium game hunting including deer, antelope, and hogs. The copper construction reduces barrel fouling compared to jacketed lead bullets while maintaining ballistic coefficients suitable for shots beyond 300 yards.
