The Barnes Bullets 30303 Tipped TSX delivers exceptional terminal performance with its polymer-tipped all-copper construction. This 7mm 150-grain boat tail bullet maintains superior accuracy while providing consistent expansion across a wide range of velocities. Professional hunters and precision shooters rely on TSX technology for clean, ethical harvests and match-grade accuracy.
What Makes This Different
The Tipped TSX combines Barnes' proven all-copper Triple-Shock X bullet design with a precision-molded polymer tip for enhanced ballistic coefficient and reliable expansion. Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that can fragment unpredictably, the solid copper construction retains 99% of its weight while creating four razor-sharp petals upon impact. The boat tail design reduces drag and maintains velocity downrange better than flat-base alternatives.
Key Features
- 100% copper construction with polymer tip for consistent expansion
- 150-grain weight optimized for 7mm cartridges (.284 diameter)
- Boat tail design improves ballistic coefficient and long-range accuracy
- Four-petal expansion pattern creates maximum wound channel
- Lead-free construction meets all hunting regulations
- Precision-manufactured tolerances ensure consistent performance
- 50 bullets per box for extended range sessions
Field testing demonstrates the Tipped TSX maintains expansion velocities from 1,800 to 3,000+ fps, making it suitable for both close-range brush hunting and long-range precision applications. The polymer tip initiates expansion reliably while the copper petals penetrate deeply through heavy bone and muscle. California hunters particularly value the lead-free construction for compliance with state ammunition regulations.
