The Barnes VOR-TX Long Range 280 Ackley Improved ammunition delivers exceptional ballistic performance for precision shooting at extended distances. This premium hunting cartridge features the advanced LRX (Long Range X) bullet design that maintains velocity and energy downrange while providing devastating terminal performance on big game.
What Makes This Different
The LRX bullet construction sets this ammunition apart from conventional hunting rounds through its solid copper design and polymer tip technology. Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that can fragment unpredictably, the monolithic copper construction ensures 95-100% weight retention while creating a controlled expansion pattern. The boat tail design reduces drag coefficient by approximately 15% compared to flat-base bullets, extending effective range significantly.Key Features
