The Barnes VOR-TX 338 Winchester Magnum ammunition features a 210 grain Tipped TSX Boat Tail bullet, delivering exceptional accuracy and terminal performance for big game hunting. This premium hunting ammunition combines Barnes' innovative all-copper bullet design with factory-loaded precision. The polymer tip enhances the ballistic coefficient for improved long-range performance, while the multiple rings cut into the bullet's shank reduce pressure and increase accuracy. Upon impact, the bullet expands rapidly, creating four razor-sharp petals that double the bullet's diameter, ensuring deep penetration and massive wound channels for quick, ethical harvests.
