Fort Scott Munitions 86BLK235SCV1 delivers devastating terminal performance through its innovative Tumble Upon Impact (TUI) design. This 8.6 Blackout ammunition creates maximum wound channels while maintaining consistent accuracy across subsonic and supersonic velocities. The solid copper construction eliminates lead fouling and provides reliable feeding in bolt-action and semi-automatic platforms.
What Makes This Different
The TUI projectile design fundamentally changes how bullets perform on impact compared to traditional expanding rounds. Where conventional hollow points rely on expansion, the TUI bullet tumbles end-over-end upon striking soft tissue, creating a significantly larger wound cavity. This solid copper construction maintains structural integrity while delivering energy transfer rates exceeding standard jacketed bullets by 15-20%.
Key Features
- 135-grain solid copper TUI projectile for maximum terminal effectiveness
- Optimized for 8.6 Blackout chambered rifles and pistols
- Lead-free construction eliminates barrel fouling and environmental concerns
- Consistent performance across temperature ranges from -20°F to 140°F
- Precision-manufactured cases ensure reliable extraction and feeding
- Subsonic velocity profile ideal for suppressed applications
- 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
Field testing demonstrates consistent 1.5-2 MOA accuracy from quality barrel systems at 100 yards. The subsonic velocity profile makes this ammunition particularly effective for suppressed hunting applications and tactical scenarios requiring reduced sound signature. The solid copper construction maintains bullet integrity through intermediate barriers while delivering consistent terminal performance on target. Temperature stability ensures reliable ignition and consistent velocities across seasonal hunting conditions.
