The Barnes TSX 375 caliber 270-grain flat base bullets deliver exceptional terminal performance through solid copper construction and proven Triple-Shock X technology. These premium hunting bullets expand reliably while retaining nearly 100% of their original weight for deep penetration on large game.
What Makes This Different
Unlike conventional lead-core bullets that fragment and lose mass, the Barnes TSX features all-copper construction with four razor-sharp petals that expand to twice the original diameter. The flat base design provides consistent accuracy in standard hunting rifles without requiring specialized twist rates. Independent ballistic testing shows 99% weight retention compared to 60-80% for traditional bullets.
Key Features
- All-copper construction eliminates lead contamination in game meat
- Triple-Shock X technology creates four cutting petals for massive wound channels
- 270-grain weight optimized for .375 H&H Magnum and similar cartridges
- Flat base design ensures compatibility with standard hunting rifle barrels
- Polymer tip initiates expansion at velocities down to 1,800 fps
- Precision-machined grooves reduce barrel fouling and pressure
- 50-bullet count provides sufficient supply for load development and hunting seasons
Field performance data from professional hunters demonstrates consistent expansion across impact velocities from 1,800 to 3,200 fps. The controlled expansion pattern creates devastating wound channels while maintaining straight-line penetration through heavy bone and muscle tissue. These characteristics make the TSX particularly effective on dangerous game where reliable stopping power is critical.
