$41.24
Barnes M/LE TAC-XP pistol bullets for .45 ACP are purpose-built for shooters who demand reliable, barrier-blind performance in defensive or tactical applications. Constructed from 100 percent copper with no lead core, these 160-grain flat-base hollow points deliver the penetration and accuracy you need while meeting lead-free environmental standards—a significant advantage if you shoot frequently or reload in shared ranges. The all-copper construction means they maintain their original weight through barriers, tracking straight after impact even through challenging obstacles like windshield glass, plywood, or vehicle doors.
Whether you're a tactical competitor, law enforcement, or a serious defensive pistol shooter, the TAC-XP line represents Barnes' commitment to materials science and real-world performance. The .451" diameter is sized for .45 ACP chambers, and the flat-base hollow-point design promotes reliable feeding and consistent expansion. These bullets reward accurate reloading practices with repeatable, predictable results downrange.
Each box contains 40 bullets, enough for practice, testing, or load development. If you're building ammunition for a platform where barrier performance matters, or if you simply prefer the environmental and health benefits of lead-free reloading components, the M/LE TAC-XP is worth testing in your loads.
