Barnes has been making solid copper bullets for years. I'd take a Barnes TSX over that crap anyday.

Those things will have some god awful ballistics.

Those are lapua bullets so you can bet they are good one's. They look like they are made for short range shooting though. :twocents:

They will make a more streamlined in the future.  They are just trying to get ahead of all the greenies and where they are trying to push us.  Personally I will be buying as many of my "old" hunting bullets as I can.  Even before I buy a new gun.  They don't get old and then I will have them to shoot a animal with and die from all the lead fragments I will ingest.  GMAFB!!!!!!

You are looking at the future of bullets. No lead hard hitting solid copper/mix rounds. i have been using the TSX for years in my 7mag and 270WSM. Love them.
