The Barnes VOR-TX LR .30-06 Springfield 175gr LRX load is a 20-round box of loaded rifle ammunition built around the all-copper Barnes LRX bullet (Barnes part no. 30748). Barnes describes the LRX as designed for precision at long range and for on-game effectiveness at every range, and lists this .30-06 Springfield load for big game and medium game hunting. The published figures put the 175-grain bullet at 2800 fps and 3047 ft-lb at the muzzle, with a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.508. By 500 yards Barnes lists the load at 1971 fps and 1510 ft-lb, which gives a long-range hunter a clear picture of what is left at distance. Because the bullet is 100% copper, there is no lead core in the projectile.
