20rds – 243 Win Federal 85gr. Barnes TSX Ammo

Federal Ammunition 85 Grain TSX Ammo Details

Federal’s own contributions to this 243 Win round are by no means insubstantial -- the round’s sensitive primer and fast-burning propellant deliver the consistent muzzle velocity that serves as the foundation for any hunting round’s performance, and its brass casing’s uniformity guarantees great reliability. It’s the cartridge’s 85 grain TSX projectile by Barnes that makes it truly stand out, though.

The TSX is made of 100 percent copper, which along with the pressure relieving grooves girdling its shank means you’ll only have to clean your rifle rarely while firing it. The great resilience of copper means that a TSX loses essentially no part of its weight as it burrows through its target, and its deep nose cavity delivers massive expansion made all the more debilitating by the four cutting petals it produces. Such terminal performance is just the thing your next hunt needs to make sure it doesn’t wind up no more than a nature walk.
