When you combine extensive feld experience with superior ballistics testing, expertise in
engineering and top quality production capabilities under one roof, the resulting output is
an incredibly broad range of purpose-built components and ammunition.
In addition to developing bullets for our own pursuits, we listen to the feedback
of our loyal customers. YOU, the customer, played a key role in the innovation
of the products below.
VOR- TX

AMMUNI TI ON
Precision loaded ammunition with the deadliest bullets on the planet. Barnes, the leader in bullet
innovation, offers hunters the ultimate in accuracy, terminal performance and handloaded precision
in a factory loaded round. We have expanded VOR-TX offerings in both rife and handgun hunting
lines for 2012. Black rife shooters can now experience VOR-TX performance in 300 AAC Blackout
in a 110 grain offering and 35 Whelen in a 180 grain load. Handgunners will see a
new 41 Rem Mag 180 grain load as well as a 250 grain offering for 454 Casull.
L RX
The LRX (Long-Range X) line includes three new offerings for 2012. An optimized version of
best-selling Tipped TSX, the LRX bullet design increases B.C. values by lengthening the profle and
boattail to improve the bullets long-range ballistic performance. For the hunter who is confdent
in long-range hunting, the LRX will fll the niche of this latest hunting craze. LRX bullets will
continue to be manufactured with the proven 100-percent copper, lead-free bodies. The bullets
polymer tip initiates expansion, causing the nose cavity to open instantly on contact doubling the
bullets original diameter while creating four cutting petals that wreak extensive internal damage.
Exceptional performance for a quick, clean kill at close and extended distances.
New LRX offerings for 2012 include 6.5mm, 127 grain, 7mm 168 grain and 338 Lapua 280 grain.
MATCH BURNE R
Barnes Match Burner bullets are exceptionally accurate and affordable. From Benchrest, High
Power Rife, 3-Gun, and Tactical matches to everyday target shooting, these premium Match
Burners have proven to deliver aggressive results. Providing competitive shooters with pin-point
precision, as well as high BC on boattail bullets for fatter trajectory (*FB offerings for Benchrest)
the all-new Match Burners have redefned accuracy while offering optimum caliber/bullet-weight
ratios. The latest offering in the Match Burner family for 2012 is the new 7mm 171 grain BT.
VARMI N- A- TOR
Taking it to the limit is the name of the game for varmint hunters! Barnes is pleased to
re-introduce this copper-jacketed, lead-core, hollow-point varmint bullet with the highly
explosive DETON-A-TOR core. The VARMIN-A-TOR varmint bullet has all the accurate and
explosive tendencies sought after by varmint shooters at the right price CHEAP! A scored
nose cavity and thin, tapered jacket assures that this bullet will vaporize anything in its path.
Available in a 20 caliber 32 grain, 22 caliber 40 and 50 grain, and 6mm 58 and 72 grain.
We live in an unprecedented age
of specialization. Odds are, your
granddad had one or two rifes.
He probably shot cheap, jacketed
military surplus ammo at targets
or for fun; he might have kept
factory ammunition on hand
in a couple of bullet weights
depending on whether he was
going after deer or elk.
Today, rifes and optics are
designed, confgured and
purpose-built for virtually
every conceivable scenario.
Caliber offerings alone can be
staggering, to say nothing of
barrel lengths, tapers, rates of
twist, stock materials, etc. With
increased specialization, there
is great potential for improved
accuracy and performance, but
only if your bullet is equally
specialized and optimized.
That is why Barnes continues
to develop leading edge
products with a wide range of
workability and functionality.
Hunters dont often have the
luxury of the perfect scenario.
Use products that increase your
chance of success, no matter the
circumstance. Regardless of the
target and situation, shooters
beneft from our constant pursuit
of improved and innovative
bullet designs, manufacture
and testing.
We are proud to have built a company based on hard work, dedication and innovation.
It has been our passion for many years now, and will remain so into the future.
Yours in shooting and friendship,
Randy & Coni Brooks

I shot a mule deer with my 300 Win Mag, using
Barnes VOR-TX 180 grain TTSX. I wish I had it on video.
I have never seen a deer get shot and fold up all four legs
instantly and drop dead like that. It was AMAZING!
Thank you for making such a great product!

E XPANDE R

MZ
This muzzleloader version of the original X-Bullet

is 100 percent copper with a


large, hollow cavity for quick, sure expansion. Barnes Expander MZ muzzleloader
bullets produce more consistent shot-to-shot velocities and better accuracy than
competing bullets deliver. The result: greater shooter confdence and more one-
shot kills. Expander MZ bullets deliver deadly performance at both high and low velocities. Expand to twice their
original diameter, creating six razor-sharp copper petals that slice through game. No fragmentation these tough,
deep-driving bullets typically retain 100 percent of their original weight. Available in .45, .50 and .54 calibers.
S PI T- F I RE MZ
A streamlined ogive, boattail base and tack-driving accuracy make the Barnes Spit-Fire
MZ a great choice for diffcult long shots. Deadly at high and low velocities. Six razor-
sharp copper petals create massive shock, deep penetration, and double-diameter
expansion. Retains virtually 100 percent of its original weight. Available in .50 caliber, in 15- and 24-bullet packs.
S PI T- F I RE TMZ


The Spit-Fire TMZ shares the same boattail design and 100 percent copper
construction with the Spit-Fire MZ, but has a streamlined polymer tip for
rapid expansion. Higher ballistic coeffcient aids exceptional long-range
performance. Remains intact at extreme velocities, yet expands at only 1050
fps. Specially designed sabot retains a tight gas seal that makes the MZ, Spit-Fire MZ and Spit-Fire TMZ the
most accurate muzzleloader bullets on the market. Available in .50 caliber, in 15- and 24-bullet packs.
S PI T- F I RE T- E Z
Spit-Fire T-EZ muzzleloader bullets with EZ Load sabots load easier in guns with
tight bores. Ramrod pressure required to load and seat these .50-caliber, fat-
base bullets is greatly reduced. T-EZ bullets deliver the excellent accuracy all
Barnes MZ bullets are famous for. The 100% copper bullets feature a polymer tip that enhances expansion and
boosts BC for superior long-range ballistics. Expand at both close and extended range, creating six razor-edge
cutting petals that maximize shock and penetration. Available in .50 caliber, in 15- and 24-bullet packs.

MPG

MULTI - PUR POS E GRE E N
MPG technology was developed for military and law enforcement applications. This
bullet design features a highly frangible, powdered-metal copper-tin core inside
a guilding metal jacket. Unlike frangible bullets lacking a protective jacket, MPG
bullets remain intact under the rigors of handling, feeding and fring in high capacity
magazines. This eliminates the primary cause of jammed actions and plugged barrels often experienced when fring
frangible ammunition in black guns.
Barnes Multi-Purpose Green bullets are exceptionally accurate. They are ideal for shooting steel targets,
competition, plinking, varmint hunting and home defense.
MATCH BUR NE R
As tactical, 3-Gun and High Power competition heats up, Barnes responds
with competitively priced lead core match-grade bullets. Competitive shooters
looking for that better mouse trap owe it to themselves to give Barnes
Burners a shot. .223 caliber offerings include 52-grain FB, 69- and 85-grain BT.
6mm confgurations include 68-grain FB and 105-grain BT. 6.5mm 140-grain
BT, 30 caliber 155- and 175-grain BT bullets are also available.
VAR MI NT GRE NADE


Introduced in 2007, the Varmint Grenade has rapidly become one of the most
popular varmint bullets around. Based on a design Barnes developed for military
applications, the hollow-cavity, fat-base bullet features a copper-tin powdered
metal core surrounded by a guilding metal jacket.
The bullet remains intact at ultra-high velocities in fast twist barrels, while its highly
frangible core fragments violently on impact. Produces instant fragmentation, virtually vaporizing ground squirrels and
prairie dogs, even at long range. Varmint Grenades instantly expend their energy, seldom exiting large predators like
bobcats and coyotes, leaving valuable pelts virtually undamaged.
VAR MI N- A- TOR
Back by popular demand and featuring the explosive DETON-A-TOR core.
This lead-core classic hollow point design utilizes a scored nose cavity. A thin, tapered
copper jacket fragments violently on impact vaporizing any varmint in its path. The
VARMIN-A-TOR is back in 22 caliber 40-grain and 50-grain, 6mm 58-grain and 72-grain,
with all new 20 caliber 32-grain.
