Description

The Barnes VOR-TX LR .22 Creedmoor 65gr LRX load is a 20-round box of loaded rifle ammunition built around the all-copper Barnes LRX bullet (Barnes part no. 32548). Barnes describes the LRX as designed for precision at long range and for on-game effectiveness at every range, and lists this .22 Creedmoor load for big game and medium game hunting. The published figures put the 65-grain bullet at 3560 fps and 1830 ft-lb at the muzzle, with a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.424. By 500 yards Barnes lists the load at 2418 fps and 844 ft-lb, which gives a long-range hunter a clear picture of what is left at distance. Because the bullet is 100% copper, there is no lead core in the projectile. Barnes notes that this product is now loaded in standard brass cases rather than the nickel-plated brass it was previously known for.
