Barnes Tsx Bullets .416 Cal .416" 350 Gr Fb 50/Ct

Barnes TSX bullets in .416 caliber deliver the controlled expansion and weight retention that serious dangerous-game and long-range hunters demand. Each 350-grain solid copper projectile is engineered to create four razor-sharp petals on impact, combining deep penetration through heavy bone and tissue with consistent, predictable expansion. Built from 100 percent copper construction, TSX rounds shed minimal material on the target—they retain their full original weight—which means energy transfer and wound channels remain devastating even at extended range or through heavy cover.

The .416 TSX is purpose-built for African plains game, North American elk and moose, and precision long-range applications where one clean kill is the only acceptable outcome. Unlike jacketed bullets that shed fragments or frangible rounds that lose mass, the TSX's monolithic design and controlled-petal expansion allow you to rely on deep, straight-line penetration and a wide wound cavity without over-fragmentation. Whether you're handloading for a bolt-gun or semi-auto platform, these bullets are ready to work right out of the box.

Accuracy starts with proper seating. Barnes recommends tuning your seating depth between 0.03 and 0.07 inches off the lands, depending on your rifle's chamber, to find the sweet spot in your particular gun. Since every firearm is different, expect to run a ladder test or start conservative and work up. The 350-grain weight in this caliber delivers substantial sectional density, critical for deep, consistent penetration on larger, thicker-skinned game.

You'll receive 50 rounds per box, enough to develop a solid load or resupply your dangerous-game kit. TSX bullets have earned their reputation among professional hunters and reloaders who cannot afford failures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What game is the .416 350gr TSX bullet suitable for?

The 350-grain TSX is designed for large, heavy-boned game including African plains species, elk, moose, and similar dangerous game. Its high sectional density and controlled expansion excel on thick-skinned, heavily muscled animals. Always verify that your chosen caliber and load combination comply with local hunting regulations for your intended quarry.

Do I need to adjust my seating depth when handloading TSX bullets?

Yes. Barnes recommends seating TSX bullets 0.03 to 0.07 inches off the lands, but the exact distance varies by rifle. Start at the conservative end and work up through a ladder test to find the most accurate load in your specific firearm. This fine-tuning is normal with monolithic bullets and is worth the effort.

Will TSX bullets lose weight or fragment on impact?

No. TSX bullets are engineered to retain 100 percent of their original weight. The monolithic copper design expands in a controlled manner without shedding jacket material or losing core fragments, ensuring consistent deep penetration and reliable energy transfer downrange.

How many bullets are in a box?

This product contains 50 bullets per box.
