Description

The Barnes VOR-TX 30-06 Springfield 180-grain Tipped TSX delivers devastating terminal performance with near 100% weight retention. This premium hunting ammunition combines Barnes' proven all-copper TSX bullet technology with a polymer tip for enhanced ballistic coefficient and rapid expansion.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that fragment and lose mass, the Tipped TSX maintains its structural integrity while creating four razor-sharp copper petals upon impact. The all-copper construction eliminates lead contamination concerns while delivering deeper penetration than conventional bullets. Independent testing shows 99% weight retention with expansion diameters reaching 2x the original bullet diameter.

Key Features

All-copper Tipped TSX bullet with polymer tip for improved ballistics
180-grain boat tail design optimized for .30-06 Springfield velocity
Four pre-scored petals create controlled expansion and tissue damage
Lead-free construction meets California and other non-toxic ammunition requirements
Precision-loaded brass cases with consistent powder charges
Boat tail profile reduces drag for flatter trajectory
20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)

Field performance demonstrates exceptional accuracy with sub-MOA groups achievable in quality rifles. The 180-grain weight provides excellent momentum for medium to large game hunting, while the polymer tip initiates reliable expansion at velocities down to 1,800 fps. Weather-resistant primer sealing and quality brass cases ensure reliable ignition in adverse conditions.
