The Barnes Tipped TSX 6.5 Creedmoor 100gr bullets deliver exceptional accuracy and terminal performance for precision shooting applications. These all-copper bullets feature Barnes' proven TSX design with a polymer tip for improved ballistic coefficient and rapid expansion.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional lead-core bullets, the Barnes Tipped TSX construction uses 100% copper with a hollow cavity design that ensures 99-100% weight retention upon impact. The polymer tip initiates expansion while the four razor-sharp petals create devastating wound channels. This monolithic design eliminates core separation issues common with bonded bullets, delivering consistent performance across all impact velocities.
Key Features
- 100% copper monolithic construction for maximum weight retention
- Polymer tip enhances ballistic coefficient and initiates rapid expansion
- Boat tail design reduces drag and improves long-range accuracy
- Four cutting petals create large wound channels for quick, humane kills
- Lead-free design meets all hunting regulations including California requirements
- Precision-machined grooves reduce barrel fouling and pressure
- Consistent 1:8 twist rate compatibility for 6.5 Creedmoor rifles
Field testing demonstrates sub-MOA accuracy in quality rifles with proper load development. The 100-grain weight provides flat trajectory and manageable recoil while delivering sufficient energy for medium game hunting out to 400 yards. These bullets perform reliably in temperature extremes from -40°F to 140°F without accuracy degradation.
