Product Overview
Federal Premium loads the 100 grain Barnes TSX at 3,210 feet per second, generating 2,288 foot-pounds of energy. This all-copper expanding bullet satisfies lead-free ammunition requirements in California and other restricted areas while delivering terminal performance that rivals traditional designs. The lightweight bullet maximizes the .25-06's velocity advantage.
The Triple-Shock X bullet expands through three circumferential grooves that petal back upon impact. With no lead core to separate, the TSX retains virtually 100% of its original weight while creating four cutting petals. This combination of weight retention and mechanical expansion produces deep, straight wound channels regardless of impact angle or velocity.
Hunters facing lead ammunition restrictions need not sacrifice performance with this load. The monolithic copper construction also appeals to those who prefer leaving no lead fragments in harvested game meat. From California condor zones to personal preference, this Federal offering delivers clean kills on deer and antelope while meeting the most stringent environmental standards.
- All-copper construction satisfies lead-free requirements while retaining 100% bullet weight
- Four-petal expansion creates consistent wound channels regardless of impact velocity or angle
- The 3,210 fps velocity maximizes the lighter bullet's flat-shooting advantage
- No lead fragments remain in harvested game meat—appeals to health-conscious hunters
- The .336 BC falls below polymer-tipped hunting bullets, increasing wind drift at distance
- Copper bullets require faster twist rates—some older rifles may not stabilize them optimally
- Premium pricing significantly exceeds conventional lead-core ammunition
