Barnes Pioneer 30-30 Winchester 150 Grain TSX Hollow Point Flat Nose Lead-Free Ammunition - 20 Rounds

The Barnes Pioneer 30-30 Winchester 150 Grain TSX Hollow Point ammunition is purpose-built for lever-action rifle hunters who demand reliable, lead-free performance in classic calibers. Whether you're working with a Winchester Model 94, Marlin, or any modern lever gun, this ammunition delivers the terminal performance and feeding reliability that old-school hunting demands—without the lead. Each 20-round box contains carefully loaded rounds optimized for tubular magazine feeding and the velocities these rifles were designed around.

Barnes Pioneer ammunition centers on the TSX (Tipped Solid eXpanding) bullet, a proven design known for consistent expansion and deep penetration on game. The 150-grain hollow point flat nose configuration is the workhorse load for 30-30 hunting; it balances energy retention with controlled expansion, making it effective on deer and similar game at typical lever-gun ranges. Lead-free construction means you can hunt in any region without restriction and feel good about your environmental footprint—no compromises on terminal effect.

Engineered specifically for tubular magazine feeding, each round is built to cycle smoothly from magazine to chamber without the hiccups that plague some ammunition in lever guns. That means faster, more reliable follow-up shots when it counts. Barnes has dialed in the loading to work with the ballistic profile and magazine geometry these rifles demand, so you get the feeding reliability your lever gun was born to deliver.
