Barnes TSX Bullets 7mm .284" 160 gr TSXFB 50/ct

The Barnes TSX Bullets 7mm .284" 160 gr TSXFB 50/ct represents the gold standard in controlled-expansion ammunition for hunters and precision shooters demanding maximum terminal performance. Constructed from 100 percent copper, these projectiles deliver the kind of one-shot reliability that separates ethical hunting from hope-and-pray scenarios. Whether you're hand-loading for a 7mm Remington Magnum or similar chambering, Barnes Triple-Shock X-Bullets have earned trust across military, law enforcement, and civilian marksmanship communities for their predictable, devastating expansion characteristics.

The 160-grain weight in .284" diameter strikes an ideal balance for 7mm platform rifles, delivering excellent velocity retention and energy transfer through intermediate-range hunting shots. Upon impact, the TSX design initiates four razor-sharp petals that cut deep into vital zones while the copper construction ensures minimal fragmentation—critical when preserving meat quality or ensuring consistent shot placement on medium to large game. The TSXFB (flat-base) design provides reliable chambering and feeding through conventional magazine-fed systems without the complications sometimes associated with boat-tail ammunition. This 50-round count box allows serious reloaders to build meaningful quantities of precision ammunition with predictable ballistics and terminal consistency.

These bullets excel for hunters working medium to long-range scenarios where controlled expansion is non-negotiable—elk, mule deer, and similar game where deep penetration and energy transfer determine success. Reloaders building handloads for 7mm rifles will appreciate the flat-base construction, which simplifies seating consistency and reduces feeding issues common with premium projectiles. Verify your specific 7mm chambering specifications before load development; consult published Barnes reloading data and maintain proper powder charge weights for safe, accurate results. The 160-grain profile performs exceptionally well in standard-length actions and delivers the ballistic characteristics serious hunters and competition shooters expect from premium copper-alloy ammunition.
