Bar 7Mm 160Gr Lrx Bt 50/10

The Barnes Bullets 7mm 160gr LRX Boat Tail is a premium rifle bullet engineered for hunters and reloaders pursuing medium to large game at extended ranges. Built on Barnes' proven all-copper construction, this projectile combines a sharp, aerodynamic profile with consistent expansion designed to deliver deep penetration and reliable performance in the field. Whether you're hand-loading for a 7mm Remington Magnum, 7mm-08, or any 7mm rifle, the LRX delivers the ballistic efficiency and terminal performance serious hunters demand.

The 160-grain weight strikes a practical balance for 7mm cartridges, offering sufficient sectional density for penetration while maintaining velocity and a flat trajectory. The boat-tail design improves aerodynamic efficiency, which translates to better downrange energy retention—especially valuable when hunting at distance or in variable conditions. These bullets are packed 50 per box with 10 boxes per case, making bulk reloading convenient for shooters who want to stock up.

All-copper construction means no lead core to separate or fragment unpredictably. Barnes LRX bullets are built to hold together through bone and dense muscle, providing the wound channel performance and weight retention that separates a clean, ethical harvest from a wounded animal. The 1:8 or faster twist rate requirement is achievable in most modern 7mm rifles, making compatibility straightforward for the majority of hunters and competition shooters.

If you're reloading precision ammunition for hunting or testing loads for your rifle, these 7mm projectiles reward careful load development. The consistent construction and published ballistic coefficient (G1 .608 / G7 .305) make them predictable for trajectory calculation and range planning.

Frequently Asked Questions

What 7mm rifles will shoot these bullets safely?

The Barnes 160gr LRX requires a 1:8 or faster twist rate. Most modern 7mm rifles—including 7mm Remington Magnum, 7mm-08 Remington, and 7mm Winchester Short Magnum—come standard with 1:9.25 or faster twist, so they'll stabilize these bullets. Check your rifle's specs if you're unsure; if you're loading for a custom rifle, ensure the barrel twist matches the requirement.

Are these bullets suitable for hunting big game?

Yes. The all-copper construction, sharp expansion design, and 160-grain weight make these bullets effective for medium to large game hunting. The sectional density (.283) provides penetration, and the controlled expansion is engineered to produce large wound channels for clean, ethical kills.

What's included in each box?

Each box contains 50 bullets. One case holds 10 boxes (500 bullets total).

How do these compare to lead-core bullets?

All-copper bullets like the LRX retain more of their original weight through the animal, which means deeper penetration and more consistent performance. They also produce different expansion characteristics—controlled and predictable rather than fragmenting. This makes them a reliable choice for hunters who prioritize clean, ethical terminal performance.
