Key Specifications

• .338 Lapua Magnum caliber, matching this bullet to that bore diameter.
• 265 grains, a weight suited to controlled-expansion big-game hunting at extended range.
• Built on Barnes’s TTSX platform: an all-copper hollow-point bullet with a polymer tip bonded into the nose for rapid, consistent expansion.
• Boat Tail design.
• Sold 50 per box — component bullets only, no cases, primers, or powder included.
• The polymer tip helps initiate expansion across a wider range of impact velocities than the non-tipped TSX.
• Grooved shank rings reduce bore friction and pressure for more consistent velocities.
• Retains close to 100% of its original weight after expansion for deep penetration.
• The Boat Tail base supports a flatter trajectory and less wind drift at extended range.
