Barnes Vor-tx 12ga 2.75 438gr 5/100

The Barnes VOR-TX 12ga 2.75" 438gr ammunition represents precision engineering in shotgun loading, delivering the terminal performance hunters and field operators demand. Each round in this 5-count box is factory loaded with Barnes' solid copper bullets, engineered for maximum energy transfer and consistent accuracy downrange. The 438-grain projectile traveling at 1450 feet per second generates substantial kinetic energy suitable for medium to large game at typical hunting distances.

The 2.75-inch shell length is the standard for most semi-automatic and pump shotguns, ensuring broad platform compatibility without feeding issues. The VOR-TX line's solid copper construction eliminates lead fragmentation, a critical factor for hunters operating in lead-restricted areas or those prioritizing ammunition sustainability. The ballistic profile of this 12-gauge load provides controlled recoil energy while maintaining downrange velocity necessary for ethical shot placement at extended ranges. Barnes handloads each round to exacting tolerances, meaning variance in velocity and point-of-impact is minimized compared to mass-production ammunition.

This ammunition suits serious shotgun hunters, law enforcement training applications, and precision-focused field operators who rely on repeatable ballistics. The five-round box format makes it ideal for practice sessions, load testing, or situations where smaller quantities prevent waste. Buyers should verify compatibility with their specific shotgun model before committing to volume purchases, as loading gate geometry and magazine tube dimensions vary between manufacturers.
