When terminal performance matters most—whether for serious field work or defensive readiness—ammo that delivers predictable expansion, consistent weight retention, and pinpoint accuracy earns a place in the kit. Professionals and experienced shooters look for bullet construction that opens reliably and transfers energy where intended without excessive fragmentation or unwanted variability.

BARNES VOR-TX HANDGUN is loaded with the XPB bullets that drive doublediameter expansion, maximum weight retention, and excellent accuracy. The XPB design opens instantly on contact: the nose peels back into six sharp-edged copper petals to produce controlled tissue and bone disruption, reliable passthrough penetration, and rapid energy transfer for fast stopping potential.

Performance and Terminal Ballistics

The hallmark of this load is the XPB bullet construction—engineered for immediate, controlled expansion and high retained weight. That double-diameter expansion profile increases frontal area rapidly, while the copper petals preserve mass and maintain penetration. For hunters, that translates to decisive tissue and bone disruption with reliable pass-throughs; for defensive use, it provides consistent energy transfer and predictable stoppage potential.

Consistency and Accuracy

BARNES has a long reputation for solid-copper bullet designs, and the VOR-TX lineup (model: Various) continues that trend. These rounds are manufactured to tight tolerances for repeatable accuracy, making them suited to both precision practice and real-world performance.
