The Barnes TSX 6.5mm 120gr boat tail bullets deliver exceptional expansion and weight retention for hunters demanding consistent terminal performance. These all-copper bullets eliminate lead contamination concerns while providing deep penetration across diverse game species.
What Makes This Different
The Triple-Shock X (TSX) design features four razor-sharp cutting petals that open to double the original diameter upon impact. Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that fragment and lose mass, the TSX retains 99% of its original weight through the toughest bone and tissue. The boat tail profile reduces drag and improves ballistic coefficient compared to flat-base designs, extending effective range and maintaining velocity downrange.Key Features
