Buffalo Bore Barnes TSX Premium Supercharged 338 Winchester Magnum 225gr Jacketed Hollow Point Rifle Ammo - 20 Rounds

Buffalo Bore Barnes TSX Premium Supercharged 338 Winchester Magnum 225gr Jacketed Hollow Point Rifle Ammo - 20 Rounds - This 338 Win. Mag. load is the most versatile of all 338 Win. Mag. loads. The Barnes 225gr. TSX has no polymer tip to accelerate expansion on impact and therefore opens more slowly than the tipped versions of the TSX bullet. This slower start to expansion causes slightly deeper penetration than the tipped versions allow and this matters when shooting large animals such as moose and bison at bad angles. If I could use only one load for all my 338 hunting, this would be it because of its versatility. This Barnes 225gr. TSX bullet will normally penetrate deeper than 250gr. premium style partition bullets, yet it gives the higher velocity, flatter trajectory and lighter recoil of the 225gr. bullet.

For smaller big game animals weighing under 600lbs, you will find Buffalo Bores item 52D, (210gr TTSX) which is tipped and gives more instant expansion, to deliver a more dramatic impact than the TSX bullet. Animals weighing under 600lbs do not need the extra penetration the TSX bullet gives over the TTSX bullet and the TTSX bullet will make larger entrance wounds and do more initial damage.
