The Barnes Banded Solid Bullets in .425 Express, 400 grain round nose (brand part no. 30536), are ready-to-load dangerous-game solids for hunters who need a bullet that holds its line through heavy bone instead of deflecting off course. Barnes machines these solids from a homogenous zinc and copper alloy engineered specifically not to deflect or disintegrate against the heavy bone structure of bear, moose, wild boar, buffalo, or bison. Multiple bands cut into the shank eliminate fouling and relieve pressure as the bullet travels down the bore, so accuracy stays consistent shot after shot in the field.
