Barnes VOR-TX 7mm PRC 170gr Tipped TSX Lead-Free Hunting Ammo 20rd 32482

The Barnes VOR-TX 7mm PRC 170gr Tipped TSX is a high-performance, lead-free solution engineered for the hunting world’s most advanced long-range cartridge. While the 7mm PRC is built to push heavy bullets at extreme velocities, many traditional hunting projectiles face a major "failure point" on heavy bone—either fragmenting too violently at close range or failing to expand at long distance. This load solves that. By utilizing the 170-grain Tipped Triple-Shock X (TTSX), Barnes has created a dedicated system for hunters who need total structural integrity and reliable terminal authority across the entire flight path.

The technical advantage of this load centers on its "monolithic reliability." Unlike lead-core bullets that depend on a thin jacket to hold together under the massive pressure of PRC velocities, the solid copper TTSX eliminates jacket-core separation entirely. The polymer tip acts as a physical wedge, driving into the bullet's large open cavity to initiate immediate expansion into four razor-sharp petals. Because the bullet is solid copper, it retains nearly 100% of its weight, providing the sectional density needed to punch through thick elk hide and heavy bone without veering off-course.

In the field, success is a game of ballistic efficiency and deep penetration. Leaving the muzzle at 2,925 fps, this 170-grain projectile combines a stable .503 G1 ballistic coefficient with a rugged copper body that refuses to break apart on impact. Whether you are hunting high-alpine ridges for moose or open plains for mule deer, the combination of premium Barnes brass and temperature-stable propellants ensures your point-of-impact remains consistent. It is a deep-penetrating, flat-shooting upgrade that removes the guesswork from the 7mm PRC hunting equation.

Features

• Monolithic Copper Construction: Zero jacket-core interface ensures near 100% weight retention and eliminates fragmentation risk.
• 170 Grain Bullet Weight: Increased sectional density provides deeper penetration and terminal authority on large-bodied game.
• Polymer Tip Expansion System: Mechanical initiation ensures reliable expansion across a broad range of impact velocities.
• 0.503 G1 Ballistic Coefficient: Streamlined boat-tail profile delivers a flatter trajectory and superior retained downrange energy.
