BARNES 30222 TSX 25 CAL 100 GRAIN BOAT TAIL 50 CNT

Barnes TSX 25 caliber 100 grain boat tail bullets (30222) are all-copper hunting projectiles in .257 diameter designed for modern 25 caliber rifles that need flat trajectory and deep penetration. This 100 grain TSX BT bullet is built for hunters who want a lead-free, controlled expansion option for cartridges like 25-06 Rem, 257 Roberts, and 25 WSSM.

Special Features

• TSX design uses a solid copper body with a deep hollow point cavity that opens into four sharp petals for rapid, controlled expansion.
• Multiple grooves cut into the shank reduce bearing surface, lower pressures, minimize copper fouling, and support higher potential velocities with excellent accuracy.
• All-copper construction provides very high weight retention and deep penetration through bone and tissue, even at higher impact speeds common to 25 caliber hunting rounds.
• Boat tail base improves aerodynamics, helping the 100 grain TSX maintain velocity and energy for flatter trajectories and reliable expansion at extended ranges.
• Precision manufacturing and the grooved shank support consistent concentricity and tight groups from quality 25 caliber rifles.

Practical Benefits

• As a component bullet, the Barnes TSX 25 caliber 100 grain BT (30222) lets you build lead-free hunting loads tailored to your specific 25 caliber rifle using appropriate load data.
• The combination of moderate weight, strong sectional density, and controlled expansion makes this bullet well suited for deer, antelope, and similar game where you want both expansion and through-penetration.
• Reduced fouling and stable pressures help you keep accuracy and velocity consistent over extended practice sessions and multi-day hunts.
• The 50 count box provides enough bullets to work up and verify a hunting load, confirm your trajectory at distance, and still have a solid supply from the same lot for the field.
• If you run a 25 caliber hunting rifle and want an all-copper boat tail hunting bullet with dependable performance on medium game, the Barnes TSX 25 cal 100 grain Boat Tail (30222) is a capable tool for serious hunting use.
