Barnes Tipped TSX 35 Caliber 180gr Flat Base Bullets 50/Box

The Barnes Tipped TSX 35 Caliber 180gr bullets deliver exceptional terminal performance through their polymer-tipped design and all-copper construction. These flat base bullets expand reliably across a wide velocity range while maintaining structural integrity for deep penetration on medium to large game.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core bullets, the Tipped TSX features a solid copper body with four razor-sharp petals that expand to nearly twice the original diameter. The polymer tip initiates expansion at lower velocities than standard TSX bullets while maintaining the weight retention characteristics that made Barnes bullets legendary among hunters. This design eliminates lead fouling in the barrel and provides consistent accuracy shot after shot.

Key Features

• All-copper construction retains 99% of original weight for maximum penetration
• Polymer tip ensures reliable expansion at velocities as low as 1,800 fps
• Four cutting petals create devastating wound channels
• Flat base design optimizes performance in standard twist rate barrels
• Lead-free composition meets all hunting regulations
• Precision-machined grooves reduce barrel fouling by 80%
• Compatible with all 35 caliber rifles including .35 Whelen and .358 Winchester

Field testing demonstrates consistent 2x diameter expansion across impact velocities from 1,800 to 3,200 fps. The 180-grain weight provides excellent sectional density for hunting elk, moose, and bear at extended ranges. These bullets maintain accuracy standards of 1.5 MOA or better in quality rifles, making them suitable for both hunting and precision shooting applications.
