The Barnes LRX .25 Caliber Boat Tail Bullets (brand part no. 32472) bring Barnes’ all-copper Long Range X construction to .25-caliber rifle reloading. At 117 grains with a boat tail base, this bullet is engineered for hunters and long-range shooters who want deep penetration paired with reliable expansion. Barnes builds the LRX line entirely from copper, eliminating the lead core found in traditional jacketed bullets, which keeps the bullet’s weight retention high through impact. It’s a strong option for reloaders assembling hunting ammunition for .25-caliber cartridges where terminal performance matters as much as accuracy.
