Barnes TSX 30 Cal 168gr Boat Tail Bullets - 50 Count Box

The Barnes TSX 30351 delivers exceptional terminal performance through its all-copper construction and proven Triple-Shock X design. These 168-grain boat tail bullets expand reliably across velocity ranges while maintaining near 100% weight retention for deep penetration on medium to large game.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that fragment and lose mass, the TSX's solid copper body expands into four razor-sharp petals while retaining virtually all original weight. This monolithic construction eliminates lead fouling in the barrel and provides consistent expansion from 1,800 to 3,000+ fps. The boat tail design reduces drag for flatter trajectories and improved long-range accuracy compared to flat-base alternatives.

Key Features

• All-copper monolithic construction for 99%+ weight retention
• Triple-groove design reduces barrel fouling and pressure
• Boat tail profile for superior ballistic coefficient
• Four-petal expansion creates devastating wound channels
• Lead-free construction meets California hunting regulations
• Precise 168-grain weight for consistent ballistics
• 50-bullet bulk packaging for volume shooters

Field testing demonstrates reliable expansion at impact velocities from 1,800 fps up to magnum velocities, making these bullets versatile for multiple cartridges from 30-06 to 300 Winchester Magnum. The controlled expansion pattern produces clean, ethical kills on deer, elk, and similar-sized game while the retained weight ensures adequate penetration through bone and muscle. Hunters report excellent accuracy with sub-MOA groups achievable in quality rifles.
