308 Winchester Load


Barnes has developed an optimized 308 Winchester 150 grain VOR-TX load that delivers the ultimate in terminal performance out of a 308 Winchester round.

The load features a re-engineered new bullet with an optimized profile and nose cavity. The new bullet profile boosts the ballistic coefficient for improved downrange ballistics; while the nose cavity modifications produce better terminal performance and expansion at 308 Winchester velocities. Proprietary powder blend yields an increased velocity of nearly 100 ft/sec over the previous load. In combination, these modifications result in performance that maximizes energy transfer, and pass-through penetration for ultimate knock-down power.

The new Barnes load replaces the existing 308 Winchester 150 grain VOR-TX load, SKU # 21540 and is now shipping to retailers. The new loads will be designated as such with a sticker on the front of the box.
