The Barnes TSX 25 caliber 100 grain boat tail bullets deliver devastating terminal performance through their all-copper construction and precision engineering. These monolithic bullets expand reliably while retaining nearly 100% of their original weight, creating massive wound channels that drop game quickly and ethically.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that fragment and lose mass upon impact, the Barnes TSX features four razor-sharp copper petals that peel back uniformly to double the bullet's diameter. This monolithic design eliminates lead contamination in meat while providing deeper penetration than conventional hunting bullets. The boat tail profile reduces drag and maintains velocity downrange, delivering flatter trajectories and consistent accuracy at extended distances.
Key Features
- All-copper monolithic construction retains 99-100% weight after expansion
- Four-petal expansion design creates 2X diameter wound channels
- Boat tail profile improves ballistic coefficient and long-range accuracy
- Lead-free design eliminates meat contamination and meets non-toxic requirements
- Precision manufacturing ensures consistent .001" concentricity tolerances
- Compatible with standard 25 caliber rifles including .257 Roberts and .25-06
- 50-count bulk packaging provides excellent value for serious hunters
Field testing consistently demonstrates exceptional accuracy with sub-MOA groups achievable in quality rifles. The TSX bullets perform reliably across velocity ranges from 1,800 to 4,000 fps, making them suitable for everything from close-range whitetail hunting to long-range varmint control. Their copper construction resists deformation during feeding and maintains structural integrity in extreme temperature conditions.
