The Barnes 6mm 85 gr TSX bullet (Barnes part no. 30212) is machined from 100 percent copper, giving it no fragmentation and roughly 28 percent deeper penetration than a comparable lead-core bullet along with maximum weight retention. Precisely engineered rings cut into the bullet shank act as pressure relief valves as the bullet travels down the bore, improving accuracy, allowing higher-velocity loads at reduced pressure, and cutting copper fouling versus a smooth-shank design.
