Overview

Barnes VOR-TX RR 6.5 Creedmoor 100 gr TTSX is the reduced-recoil load in this group. The official Barnes chart publishes 2,760 fps and 1,692 ft-lb from a 24-inch test barrel, replacing the unsupported 3,300 fps and calculated 2,418 ft-lb previously shown.

Barnes uses a 100-yard zero and 1.5-inch sight height. No exact product-specific wind-drift figures are published, so no wind column is included.

Bullet Design and Intended Use

The 100 gr TTSX uses a polymer tip, all-copper construction, hollow nose cavity, relief grooves, and a boat-tail base. It retains the lead-free TTSX design while reducing recoil relative to heavier full-power loads.

Barnes positions this load for reduced-recoil hunting and notes availability through select retailers. Confirm point of impact because it may differ from standard loads.
