The Triple-Shock X is Barnes Bullets' premium hunting rifle ammunition. Commonly referred to as Barnes X bullets, this line of ammo comes in most rifle calibers, and the bullet is quite unique in that it uses a fairly thin diameter hollow section in the tip compared to similar styles.

The TSX has proven to be one of the most accurate hunting bullets available–a fact countless shooters have confirmed. An exclusive feature of the TSX Bullet is multiple, precisely engineered rings cut into the bullet shank. These grooved rings act as relief valves as bullet metal flows under pressure while traveling down the bore.

The Tipped Triple-Shock X is an updated variation on Barnes Bullets' popular Triple-Shock X (TSX) that debuted in 2003, as a premium hunting bullet. TSX was – and still is – extremely popular with a relatively large following, but this tipped version aims to improve upon it with the polymer tip and redesigned nose cavity.

2010年9月23日 · Named the Triple-Shock X-Bullet, the new bullet can be distinguished from the original by three rings cut into its all-copper body. These rings--along with a redesigned cavity in its nose--offer several advantages over conventional hunting bullets.

2010年8月18日 · Unveiled in 2007, the Tipped Triple-Shock X-Bullet (TTSX) offered an upgrade in the performance of an already-excellent product, the Triple-Shock X-Bullet (TSX), but without the increased...

2015年11月18日 · The Barnes Triple-Shock is a very misunderstood bullet. It is extruded from a solid piece of copper and has no core. This makes it a lead free, mono-metal bullet. Hunters consider Triple-Shocks to be very tough bullets, and they are. However, this does not mean they do not expand on small or thin-skinned game.

This lead-free, 100% copper-constructed bullet provides extreme penetration every time. Typically, this premium hunting bullet retains 100% of its original weight even after smashing through dense tissue and heavy bone. The Triple - Shock® bullet design incorporates a series of precisely positioned rings cut into the bullet’s body.

2011年1月4日 · The TTSX is a solid-copper bullet with a polymer tip--something new for Barnes in a solid. The tip improves upon the capabilities of the original TSX bullet at longer ranges, and it provides even faster expansion than its predecessor.

2015年9月23日 · The Tipped Triple-Shock is a descendant of the original Barnes X-Bullet. Like the X-Bullet the Triple-Shock is an all-copper projectile with a small hollow cavity at the front. But, unlike its predecessor, the caliber diameter body of the Tipped Triple-Shock is ringed with grooves to help reduce fouling and improve accuracy.

When the bullet expands, four razor-sharp cutting petals are created, allowing the bullet to penetrate farther through tough bone and tissue. These bullets usually retain 100% of their original weight, making them a superb choice for hunting. Barnes recommends initially seating bullets 0.050" off the lands.
