Product Overview

The Barnes Triple-Shock X (TSX) 338 Cal 250 Grain HPFB lead-free bullets are purpose-built for handloaders pursuing large game at distance. Constructed from 100% copper, these all-copper projectiles deliver the terminal performance serious hunters demand—controlled expansion, deep penetration, and weight retention that won't leave you wondering if the shot was clean. With a box of 50, you've got enough to zero and hunt without rationing.

What sets TSX bullets apart is their design philosophy: four razor-sharp petals that cut tissue aggressively while the shank drives through dense bone and muscle. That combination of expansion and penetration is what separates a clean kill from a long tracking job. For handloaders focused on 338 caliber rifles, the 250-grain HPFB profile strikes a balance between velocity and stopping power across hunting distances where big game truly demands respect.

Lead-free construction matters if your hunting ground is in a state or region where that's required—or if you simply prefer it. These bullets seat best when you run 0.03 to 0.07 inches of clearance to the lands, though like most handloading work, your specific rifle will have its preferences. Start conservative and let your load development tell you what your gun wants.
