Buffalo Bore Ammunition 357 Magnum 125 Grain Barnes TAC-XP Hollow Point Lead-Free 20RD

Buffalo Bore's 357 Magnum 125 Grain Barnes TAC-XP Hollow Point ammunition pairs serious stopping power with the practicality of lead-free construction. Built for shooters who demand reliability in defensive loads, hunting, or steel-target practice where lead exposure is a concern, this round combines a proven hollow-point design with premium performance that's backed by Buffalo Bore's reputation for hand-loaded precision.

The Barnes TAC-XP hollow point is engineered to expand reliably across a range of velocities, delivering consistent performance whether you're shooting from a snubby revolver or a full-length barrel. At 125 grains, this bullet weight is a classic choice for 357 Magnum—it hits the sweet spot between velocity and energy while keeping recoil manageable. Lead-free construction means you can shoot at indoor ranges and outdoor venues with environmental restrictions without compromise.

Buffalo Bore loads each round to exacting standards in their own facility, so you're getting quality control that mass-market ammunition can't match. Every box of 20 is built to shoot accurately and reliably, whether you're zeroing in at the range or carrying for personal defense. This is ammunition made by shooters, for shooters who understand that the last round you fire should perform just as well as the first.
