Barnes VOR-TX Long Range 7mm Remington Magnum ammunition (part no. 28981) loads a 139-grain LRX Boat Tail for hunters who need controlled expansion without any surprises. Barnes pioneered the all-copper hunting bullet, and its factory loads carry that same lead-free, deep-penetrating design. A boat tail base holds velocity at distance while the all-copper LRX petals still open reliably at the lower impact speeds long shots produce. Brass-cased and 20 to a box, it is built to feed reliably through bolt guns and semi-autos chambered for the cartridge. In our rifle ammunition lineup, this 7mm Remington Magnum loading is a confirmed, dependable choice worth adding to the cart.
