Description

The Barnes XPB 45 Colt 200-grain bullets deliver devastating terminal performance through solid copper construction and precision-engineered hollow point design. These lead-free projectiles expand reliably at moderate velocities while maintaining structural integrity for deep penetration.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core bullets, the XPB features 100% copper construction that eliminates fragmentation while creating consistent four-petal expansion. The engineered hollow point cavity initiates expansion at velocities as low as 1,200 fps, making it ideal for standard-pressure 45 Colt loads. Barnes' proprietary manufacturing process ensures each bullet maintains precise weight tolerance within +/- 0.3 grains.

Key Features

100% solid copper construction eliminates lead exposure and barrel fouling
Engineered hollow point expands reliably at low to moderate velocities
Four-petal expansion design creates maximum wound channel diameter
200-grain weight optimized for 45 Colt ballistics and energy transfer
Precise manufacturing maintains consistent accuracy and performance
California-compliant lead-free construction meets hunting regulations
Boat-tail base design improves ballistic coefficient and accuracy

Field testing demonstrates the XPB's ability to penetrate 12-18 inches in ballistic gelatin while expanding to nearly twice original diameter. The copper construction retains 99% of its original weight, ensuring maximum energy transfer to the target. These bullets perform consistently across temperature ranges from -20°F to 140°F, making them suitable for year-round hunting and defensive applications.
