The Barnes TTSX 22 caliber 62-grain bullets deliver devastating terminal performance through their all-copper construction and precision-engineered tip design. These boat tail bullets maintain velocity and accuracy at extended ranges while providing consistent expansion across varying impact velocities. Professional hunters and precision shooters rely on the TTSX design for its ability to retain 99% of its weight while creating maximum wound channels.
What Makes This Different
The Tipped Triple-Shock X design combines a polymer tip with Barnes' proven all-copper bullet technology to achieve both rapid expansion and deep penetration. Unlike lead-core bullets that can fragment or fail to expand reliably, the TTSX maintains structural integrity while creating four cutting petals that peel back uniformly. This engineering delivers consistent terminal performance whether impacting at high velocity close range or lower velocity at distance.
Key Features
- All-copper construction eliminates lead contamination and ensures 99% weight retention
- Polymer tip initiates expansion at velocities as low as 1,800 fps
- Boat tail design reduces drag and maintains velocity over extended distances
- Four razor-sharp cutting petals create maximum tissue damage
- Multiple relief grooves reduce barrel fouling and pressure
- Precision manufacturing maintains sub-MOA accuracy potential
- Compatible with standard .224" diameter rifle chambers
Field testing demonstrates the TTSX's effectiveness across diverse hunting scenarios, from varmint control to medium game harvesting. The 62-grain weight provides excellent sectional density for the .22 caliber, ensuring adequate penetration on larger targets while maintaining flat trajectory characteristics. Weather conditions have minimal impact on performance due to the solid copper construction that resists deformation.
