The Barnes VOR-TX 300 Weatherby Magnum delivers devastating terminal performance with its 180-grain Tipped TSX bullet design. This premium hunting ammunition combines the proven expansion characteristics of the TSX with improved ballistic coefficients for flatter trajectories and enhanced long-range accuracy.
What Makes This Different
The Tipped TSX bullet features a polymer tip that initiates expansion upon impact while maintaining structural integrity through bone and tissue. Unlike conventional lead-core bullets that can fragment, the solid copper construction retains 99% of its weight for maximum penetration. The boat tail design reduces drag and improves downrange velocity retention compared to flat-base projectiles.
Key Features
- 180-grain Tipped TSX bullet with polymer tip for reliable expansion
- Solid copper construction retains 99% weight for deep penetration
- Boat tail design improves ballistic coefficient and long-range performance
- Premium brass cases with consistent powder charges for accuracy
- Lead-free construction meets California hunting regulations
- Four razor-sharp petals create devastating wound channels
- Optimized for 300 Weatherby Magnum chamber specifications
Field performance demonstrates exceptional accuracy in bolt-action rifles with 24-26 inch barrels. The 300 Weatherby Magnum cartridge delivers muzzle velocities exceeding 3,000 fps, making this load effective on elk, moose, and other large game at extended ranges. The copper construction eliminates lead fouling while maintaining consistent point of impact across temperature variations.
