The Barnes Originals .510 inch 300 Grain Flat Nose Soft Point bullet (brand part no. 30682) is built by Barnes for the classic .50-110 Winchester lever-action cartridge, sold 20 to a box for handloaders. Barnes Original bullets were the first bullets produced using pressure-formed, 100 percent copper tubing wrapped around a solid lead core, a design first introduced in 1939 that became the first custom bullet American handloaders could buy. On impact this bullet typically expands to over 200 percent of its original diameter while retaining up to 90 percent of its starting weight, giving vintage lever-gun shooters modern-grade terminal performance.
