Barnes Bullets TTSX BT 6.5 Creedmoor 100gr - 20 Rounds

Barnes Bullets TTSX BT ammunition in 6.5 Creedmoor delivers the controlled expansion and weight retention that serious hunters and long-range shooters demand. The all-copper bullet construction eliminates lead, making these rounds compliant with non-lead ammunition mandates in regulated areas—a practical advantage if you hunt in states or regions with copper-only restrictions. The boat-tail design supports the ballistic profile for which 6.5 Creedmoor has become known: consistent trajectories and manageable recoil over extended distances.

At 100 grains, this load sits lighter than some 6.5 Creedmoor options, which can mean flatter trajectories and faster velocity depending on your rifle's barrel length and powder charge. Barnes TTSX bullets are engineered for deep penetration with reliable expansion on game, a proven combination for hunting applications where shot placement and terminal performance matter.

This box ships with 20 rounds, making it ideal for range trips, load development, or topping off your ammunition supply before a hunt. Whether you're fine-tuning a new rifle, zeroing before the season, or building a hunting load, Barnes TTSX ammunition is manufactured to the precision standards you'd expect from one of the industry's most respected bullet makers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this ammunition lead-free?

Yes. Barnes TTSX bullets are constructed entirely from copper, making them compliant with lead-free ammunition regulations in states and regions that restrict or prohibit lead ammunition.

What is a boat-tail bullet, and why does it matter?

A boat-tail design tapers the rear of the bullet to reduce drag and improve aerodynamic efficiency. This results in a better ballistic coefficient, which supports flatter trajectories and more consistent long-range performance.

Is 100 grains a typical weight for 6.5 Creedmoor?

100 grains is on the lighter end of common 6.5 Creedmoor loads. Lighter bullets typically produce flatter trajectories and faster velocities, while heavier bullets (120–140 grains) are popular for extended-range hunting. Your rifle's twist rate and intended use should guide your selection.

What is TTSX?

TTSX stands for Tipped TSX. It's Barnes' all-copper, hollow-point bullet design engineered for controlled expansion and weight retention on game animals, with a polymer tip that aids aerodynamic performance and consistent expansion.
