The Barnes Tipped TSX (TTSX) 6mm 80gr rifle bullet (brand part no. 30208) is built for .243-caliber cartridges and carries a ballistic polymer tip on top of Barnes’ all-copper TSX body. Barnes cuts multiple rings into the shank to act as pressure relief valves as the bullet travels down the bore, which improves accuracy and lets handloaders run higher-velocity .243 loads with less copper fouling. The tip and reshaped nose cavity drive faster expansion while the bullet still holds together for the deep, straight-line penetration Barnes copper bullets are known for. It ships 50 to a box.
