The Fort Scott Munitions 6.5 Creedmoor 140gr Solid Copper Spun TUI load (Fort Scott part no. 65CM-140-SCV2) uses a fundamentally different terminal mechanism than a traditional expanding hunting bullet. Machined from a single piece of solid copper with no jacket and no lead core, the bullet is engineered to tumble end over end after impact rather than mushroom outward, creating a wide, irregular wound channel while resisting the fragmentation and over-penetration issues that can affect conventional bullets. Fort Scott calls this Tumble Upon Impact, or TUI, technology, and it has built a following among hunters and defensive shooters who want a lead-free option in their rifle.
