Barnes TSX 45-70 Gov 250gr Flat Nose Bullets - 20/Box

The Barnes TSX 45-70 Government 250-grain bullets deliver devastating terminal performance through their all-copper construction and proven Triple-Shock X design. These flat nose, flat base projectiles expand reliably while retaining 99% of their original weight for maximum energy transfer on large game.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that fragment and lose mass, the Barnes TSX maintains structural integrity through controlled expansion. The hollow point design creates four razor-sharp copper petals that double the bullet diameter upon impact. This monolithic copper construction eliminates lead contamination concerns while delivering deeper penetration than comparable weight lead bullets.

Key Features

• All-copper monolithic construction retains 99% weight for maximum penetration
• Triple-Shock X hollow point creates consistent 2x diameter expansion
• 250-grain flat nose profile optimized for 45-70 Government cartridges
• Flat base design ensures stable flight and consistent accuracy
• Lead-free construction meets all hunting regulations nationwide
• Precision machined grooves reduce barrel fouling and pressure
• Compatible with standard 45-70 Gov rifle chambers and loading data

Field testing demonstrates exceptional performance on heavy game at 45-70 velocities ranging from 1,800 to 2,100 fps. The flat nose configuration transfers energy efficiently for quick, ethical kills on elk, bear, and dangerous game at moderate ranges. Weather conditions have minimal impact on accuracy due to the aerodynamically stable flat base design. These bullets maintain consistent point of impact across temperature variations common in hunting environments.
