Upon impact, the tail expands, smearing the impact site with a mushroom shape to tremendous energy. This, too, is designed to break bone. The bonded solid copper core moves the projectile through a rapid zone of intense energy. Energy transfer is optimized at close ranges, providing the energy needed to penetrate the thickest bone, while expanding rapidly at longer distances. Energy retention is also optimized; as the projectile heats up it expands creating a mushroom-shaped wound channel which is consistent with the deep terminal penetration necessary for one-shot kills of larger game. Precision hunters depend on instinct, good shooting and good field craft which is why when in a pinch you can count on no-nonsense TSXs from Barnes.
