Frequently Asked Questions
What revolvers is the Barnes TAC-XPD 357 Magnum compatible with?
The TAC-XPD 357 Magnum is compatible with any revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, including popular platforms from Smith & Wesson, Ruger, Colt, and Taurus. Because .357 Magnum chambers are dimensionally identical to .38 Special chambers (with a longer case length), this round will not chamber in .38 Special-only revolvers — always verify your firearm is rated for .357 Magnum before use.
How does the all-copper TAC-XP bullet perform compared to traditional jacketed hollow points?
The Barnes TAC-XP all-copper hollow point is engineered to expand more reliably and retain more weight than traditional lead-core jacketed hollow points. While conventional JHP bullets can fragment or fail to expand through heavy clothing or barriers, the TAC-XP's solid copper construction allows it to expand up to 1.5x its original diameter and retain nearly 100% of its weight through a variety of intermediate barriers — delivering deeper, more consistent penetration aligned with FBI ballistic standards.
Is Barnes TAC-XPD ammunition safe to use at indoor ranges in California?
Yes. Barnes TAC-XPD ammunition uses a lead-free, all-copper TAC-XP projectile along with a non-toxic primer, making it an excellent choice for indoor ranges in California that prohibit lead-core ammunition. Always confirm your specific range's ammunition policy before visiting, as requirements can vary by facility.
