The Barnes VOR-TX 21563 delivers precision hunting performance with its 150-grain Tipped TSX bullet design in 7mm Remington Magnum. This premium ammunition combines the proven expansion characteristics of all-copper construction with enhanced ballistic coefficients for extended range effectiveness.
What Makes This Different
The Tipped TSX (Triple-Shock X) bullet features a polymer tip that initiates rapid expansion while maintaining 99% weight retention through its solid copper construction. Unlike lead-core bullets that fragment and lose mass, this design creates four razor-sharp petals that double the original diameter upon impact. The boat tail configuration reduces drag and maintains velocity downrange, delivering superior terminal performance compared to conventional hunting rounds.
Key Features
- 150-grain Tipped TSX bullet with polymer tip for rapid expansion
- All-copper construction ensures 99% weight retention and deep penetration

Field testing demonstrates consistent 1-2 MOA accuracy in quality rifles, with muzzle velocities reaching approximately 3,100 fps from 24-inch barrels. The controlled expansion design proves effective on medium to large game at ranges extending beyond 400 yards. Weather-resistant primer sealing and quality brass cases ensure reliable ignition in diverse hunting conditions, from mountain elk hunts to open prairie applications.
