Have you searched far and wide for the perfect 6.5 Creedmoor hunting ammunition? Then pull your car over, fling the door wide open, and get out to take a look: Barnes VOR-TX is the ultimate solution for whitetail, blacktail, boar and coyote.
This round’s 120 grain TTSX BT is a precision shooter’s bullet. It is made of 100 percent copper, so you won’t have to deal with lead residue choking up your barrel’s rifling. Its sharp polymer tip delicately parts air molecules aside. Its sleek boat tail reduces drag, and its long shank’s pressure-relieving grooves reduce the amount of contact it makes with your barrel. The end result is a flat shooting, wind resistant 0.412 B.C. bullet that you could use to drive rivets.
The TTSX BT’s 100 percent copper construction doesn’t just make it nontoxic. It also makes it excessively resilient, so it resists shattering apart as it pierces thick hide and dense bone. As the TTSX BT penetrates deeply its polymer tip slides down into its nose cavity, which effects the extension of four long cutting petals. It’s terminal performance that delivers a fast and clean kill!
This ammo is meticulously loaded to suit the demands of the most discerning hunters. Barnes labors over their brass, primers and propellant to guarantee their VOR-TX ammo’s consistency, uniformity and tight tolerances.

Sub MOA groups from a picky Savage 11 VT w24″ heavy barrel @100m. Shooting sub/1 MOA groups from 200m. Hitting steel at 600m using Nikon BDC app. and factory load specs. Happy, happy, happy.

I bought this ammo for my Ruger American compact 308 after I figured out that my rifle is picky on the speed of the bullet. I have shot multiple deer with this ammo. Every deer was a bang flop. It’s definitely the ammo I’ll be sticking with with this rifle!

Very fast delivery.

Clean, accurate, with no failures to fire. No problems with feeding, fed very well. The downside is the cost per round, is getting quite expensive.

I shot a 200lb hog with one shot at over 100 yards. The bucket performed beyond my expectations. I use it in 308, 6.5 and 243. It\’s great

Fed very well with no issues. Accurate, and American made. Downside is boxes of 150 appear to be filled by weight with the scale set a bit light. All my boxes arrived taped shut and contained only 146 rounds vs. the advertised 150. The cost per round is bad enough without short selling customers.

Actually a little bit of a punch behind it, I dropped a little lower in grain . But I wouldn’t hesitate to buy again

Shot 1,000 rounds of the Winchester 36 grain 1280 fps .22 LR in 3 sessions over the last month out of a Remington 597 heavy barrel with heavy laminated stock. About half with a Nikon Prostaff Rimfire II 3-9x scope and half with a Bushnell 1x red dot, both zeroed at 50 yards. 1.5″ groups with the Nikon; 2.5″ with the Bushnell; both from an outdoor bench with barrel support. I am 71 years old and not as steady as I used to be. I am sure the rifle and ammo can shoot better than I can. Total of 6 FTF; all were good strikes on bad primers. Total of 3 FTE; one near the end of each session – probably from a dirty bolt. Did not clean the rifle except at the end of each session.

Since reloading supplies are few and far between I decided to buy a 22LR and got a Savage MKII and put a Vortex Viper 6.5-20 I had lying around. I got this ammo and my rifle loves it. No misfires and I got excellent groups at 100 yards. I compared it to some CCi Stingers I had and the Winchester shot as well if not a little better. In a few days I’ll see how it does at 200 yards. I only wish Midway would have sold me 3 boxes instead of limiting me to 1 so I can shoot more but rules are rules.

This is great ammo for a 22LR firearm take is suitable for supersonic Velocity ammo. Now my Ruger target from Ruger was not designed to shoot this velocity ammo. I have in stall all key parts required for supersonic velocity ammo and fires, feeds without jams. It’s not ammo when these things happen most often the gun was not designed to handle and would need converted.

I bought a 150 round pack at cabelas for $90. That\’s about .60 a round. Not sure why Midway is so much more expensive.
