The Barnes LRX .22 Caliber Boat Tail Bullets (brand part no. 32471) bring Barnes’ Long Range X all-copper design to .22-caliber varmint and predator reloading. Barnes engineers the LRX nose with specifically shaped, razor-sharp petals that open on impact to produce a massive wound channel, even on dense, thick-skinned game. That petal design also delivers deeper penetration, near-double-diameter expansion, and higher weight retention than a conventional lead-core bullet. It’s built for reloaders who want fast, decisive terminal performance without giving up the accuracy a boat tail profile provides at distance.
