Overview
These hunting bullets are built for shooters who want a polymer-tipped design that helps initiate expansion while also boosting ballistic coefficient. The all-copper construction, re-engineered nose cavity, and precisely engineered rings in the shank are intended to support rapid expansion and maximum weight retention. Barnes positions this TSX variant as a solid choice for serious hunting applications where penetration and controlled terminal performance matter. It is offered in a 50-count box for loading and range preparation.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- All-copper, polymer-tip construction may require load development to match a specific rifle and hunting setup.
- The 100gr 6.5mm (.264) profile is purpose-built for that caliber, so it is not a general-purpose option across other chamberings.
- The design emphasizes expansion and penetration characteristics, which may be more specialized than a standard target bullet.
- Packaged 50 per box, so larger-volume shooters may need to plan for additional supply.
