The Barnes VOR-TX 21581 is a premium .35 Whelen hunting load, featuring the all-copper 180-grain Tipped TSX Flat Base projectile. Designed for maximum penetration and reliable expansion, this bullet uses a polymer tip to improve ballistic coefficient, ensuring flatter trajectories and superior accuracy.
With its solid copper construction, the Tipped TSX retains nearly all of its weight upon impact, delivering devastating penetration even through heavy bone and dense muscle. The expansion is controlled for deep wound channels, making it highly effective on elk, moose, bear, and similar large game species.
Barnes engineers each VOR-TX round to exacting tolerances, using premium brass, clean-burning propellants, and precision primers to ensure shot-to-shot consistency in the field.
