Who This Is For
The Barnes VOR-TX .308 Win 150 gr TTSX is built for big-game hunters who refuse to compromise on terminal performance — whether you're pursuing whitetail deer, elk, or black bear at close or extended ranges. Its lead-free, all-copper TTSX bullet also makes it the go-to choice for hunters in California and other states with lead-ammunition restrictions, without sacrificing an ounce of lethality or accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the TTSX bullet differ from the standard TSX?
The Tipped TSX (TTSX) features a polymer tip that initiates expansion faster and more reliably than the open-tip TSX, especially at longer ranges where velocity has decreased. The tip also improves the bullet's ballistic coefficient for a flatter trajectory and more consistent accuracy at distance — making it the preferred choice for hunters taking shots beyond 200 yards.
Is this ammunition suitable for hunting in California?
Yes. Barnes VOR-TX .308 Win 150 gr TTSX is 100% lead-free, constructed entirely of solid copper. It fully complies with California's Nonlead Ammunition regulation, which requires the use of lead-free bullets when hunting with a firearm anywhere in California. This makes it an ideal choice for hunters in condor zones and throughout the state.
What big game animals is this load appropriate for?
The .308 Win 150 gr TTSX is an excellent all-around big-game load suitable for whitetail and mule deer, black bear, pronghorn, and even elk at moderate ranges. The bullet's near-100% weight retention and double-diameter expansion ensure deep penetration and a large wound channel, making it effective on animals from 100 to 600+ pounds when shots are placed correctly.
