The Barnes TAC-XPD 357 Magnum delivers maximum stopping power with precision-engineered all-copper construction that ensures reliable expansion and deep penetration. This premium defense ammunition features Barnes' proven TAC-XPD bullet design, specifically developed for law enforcement and civilian defense applications where terminal performance cannot be compromised.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that can fragment inconsistently, the TAC-XPD utilizes a solid copper construction with engineered petals that expand to nearly twice the original diameter upon impact. The bullet maintains 100% weight retention while creating a larger wound channel than conventional hollow points. FBI protocol testing demonstrates consistent expansion across all standard barriers including heavy clothing, wallboard, and automotive glass.

Key Features

  • All-copper TAC-XPD bullet design with four pre-scored expansion petals
  • 125-grain projectile optimized for 357 Magnum velocity and energy
  • Lead-free construction eliminates toxic exposure concerns
  • Nickel-plated brass cases for reliable feeding and extraction
  • Low-flash powder reduces muzzle signature in low-light situations
  • Temperature-stable propellant maintains consistency from -40°F to +140°F
  • Compatible with all 357 Magnum and 357 Maximum firearms
Field testing shows the TAC-XPD consistently achieves 18-20 inches of penetration in ballistic gelatin while expanding to .60+ inches in diameter. The all-copper construction eliminates lead fouling in barrels and reduces maintenance requirements. This ammunition performs reliably in both snub-nose revolvers and longer-barreled hunting revolvers, making it suitable for concealed carry, home defense, and hunting medium game.
