Description

The Barnes TSX 45-70 Government 300gr Flat Base bullets deliver maximum terminal performance for big game hunting with their proven all-copper construction. These flat nose projectiles expand reliably while retaining nearly 100% of their original weight, ensuring deep penetration on large game animals.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that fragment and lose mass, the TSX features Barnes' Triple-Shock X technology with four razor-sharp copper petals that create devastating wound channels. The all-copper construction eliminates lead fouling in the barrel while maintaining structural integrity through bone and heavy muscle. Independent testing shows TSX bullets retain 95-99% of their weight compared to 60-80% retention rates of conventional bullets.

Key Features

All-copper Triple-Shock X construction for maximum weight retention
300 grain flat base design optimized for 45-70 Government cartridges
Flat nose profile increases frontal diameter for enhanced energy transfer
Four cutting petals create 2x original diameter wound channels
Lead-free construction meets all hunting regulations
Precision CNC machined for consistent ballistic performance
20 bullets per box with consistent 300 grain weight tolerance

Field performance demonstrates exceptional accuracy in lever-action rifles with 2-3 inch groups at 100 yards when properly loaded. The flat nose design feeds smoothly through tubular magazines while the controlled expansion provides clean, ethical kills on elk, moose, and dangerous game. These bullets maintain their ballistic coefficient through various weather conditions and show minimal velocity degradation at extended ranges.
