Barnes VOR-TX 300 WSM 165 Grain TTSX Lead-Free Polymer Tipped Spitzer Boat Tail Ammo - 20 Rounds

Barnes VOR-TX 300 WSM ammunition pairs precision factory loading with the trusted TTSX bullet—a lead-free, polymer-tipped design built for hunters who demand reliable expansion and deep penetration. The 165-grain TTSX in this short-magnum cartridge delivers the velocity and energy transfer that 300 WSM shooters expect, with a design optimized for both accuracy and terminal performance on medium to large game. If you're running a 300 WSM rifle and want ammunition engineered for consistent results without guesswork, VOR-TX rounds are loaded to exacting standards so you can focus on your shot.

The TTSX bullet itself is the key: its copper construction and streamlined boat-tail profile promote reliable flight, while the polymer tip initiates expansion the moment it contacts tissue. The shank grooves cut into each bullet reduce pressure spikes during firing, which steadies accuracy downrange. Because it's lead-free, VOR-TX is a practical choice in jurisdictions with non-toxic ammunition requirements or for hunters who prefer it. Each box contains 20 rounds, ready to load into your magazine and go.

Barnes has built its reputation on bullet innovation, and the VOR-TX line reflects decades of that focus. You're not paying for hype—you're buying ammunition loaded with bullets engineered to expand swiftly, retain weight through bone and muscle, and deliver the energy needed for a quick, ethical harvest. For 300 WSM shooters who won't settle for generic surplus or unreliable budget loads, VOR-TX brings ballistic certainty to the field.
