What happens when the same company that produces match 5.56x45mm ammo for U.S. Armed Forces Service Rifle Teams decides to load the Barnes Triple-Shock X monolithic projectile? You get this fine lead-free hunting ammunition by Black Hills of South Dakota!
This cartridge is loaded with a 62 grain TSX: a bullet that is totally devoid of lead. It won’t deposit gray fouling inside a rifle’s grooves. It won’t contaminate meat, either. And because the TSX is solid copper, it doesn’t violate laws banning lead projectiles.
The TSX does not have a jacket, and therefore does not have jacket concentricity flaws that could have harmed its gyroscopic stability. The TSX achieves even greater accuracy courtesy of its Accu-Groove channel (which minimizes copper fouling), precision heel radius (which presents a highly uniform surface for propellant gasses to push against), and sleek frontal profile.
A tough monolithic bullet is naturally equipped for deep penetration. The TSX’s terminal ballistics are even deadlier thanks to the bullet’s unique form of expansion, which takes the form of four long, sharp “cutting petals” that stamp a broad wound column into the quarry.
This ammunition is loaded with brand new military-grade brass cases and noncorrosive Boxer primers. It is designed to withstand exposure to moisture – a big plus if your hunting trip takes you through damp conditions.
