The Barnes TAC-TX bullet
The Barnes TAC‑TX is purpose‑designed for cartridges like 300 BLK, engineered to expand reliably at the velocities these loads produce — including from short barrels. As a monolithic copper bullet it opens into sharp petals while retaining nearly all its weight, driving deep and straight for dependable penetration.
That reliable expansion and weight retention is exactly why the TAC‑TX is so respected for both hunting and defensive use, and this 300 Blackout 110gr Barnes load puts it to work to its full potential.
Completely lead-free
This load is fully lead‑free — not just the bullet, but the primer too. That makes it ideal for indoor ranges, non‑lead hunting areas, and anyone who wants to minimize lead exposure without giving up premium performance.
Built to the same standards as Gorilla’s match loads, it proves that lead‑free doesn’t mean a compromise on accuracy or terminal effect.
Supersonic velocity and reach
At roughly 2,350 FPS, this 300 Blackout 110gr Barnes load is fast for the cartridge, giving you a flat trajectory, strong retained energy and the velocity the TAC‑TX needs to expand reliably. It extends your practical range well beyond what subsonic loads offer.
That makes it a versatile choice for hunting medium game and for defensive use, where reliable expansion at distance matters.
Best for hunting and defense
This is a premium load for hogs, deer and similar game, and a strong defensive option thanks to the TAC‑TX’s reliable expansion from short barrels. When you want the best terminal performance the cartridge can deliver supersonic, this is the load to reach for.
Confirm your zero with it before hunting or carry. For defensive load selection, see our 300 Blackout home defense guide, and for setup, our 300 Blackout vs 5.56 comparison.

Why shooters choose the Barnes TAC-TX
The Barnes TAC‑TX has earned a devoted following because it solves the central challenge of a short‑barrel cartridge: reliable expansion across a range of impact velocities. Because it is a monolithic copper bullet rather than a lead‑core design, it holds together where lesser bullets fragment, retaining weight to drive deep even after expanding.
In this 300 Blackout 110gr Barnes load, that means you can trust it on a quartering shot or through bone — the kind of dependable performance that matters most when it counts, whether hunting or defending.
110gr Barnes vs other 300 loads
Against budget supersonic loads, this premium TAC‑TX round trades a higher price for genuinely better terminal performance and lead‑free construction. Against subsonic loads, it trades quiet for velocity, reach and reliable expansion. It occupies the premium‑supersonic slot in a well‑rounded ammo locker.
Many 300 BLK owners keep this Barnes load for serious hunting and defense, a cheaper FMJ for practice, and a subsonic load for suppressed work — each tool for its job.
Rifle and suppressor pairing
Run this 300 Blackout 110gr Barnes load in any properly chambered 300 Blackout AR‑15 or bolt action. Supersonic loads cycle gas guns easily; you can shoot this suppressed, but as a supersonic round it still produces a sonic crack.
Confirm your zero, since supersonic and subsonic loads print to different points of impact. Suppressors and components are available at our sister store, blackoutammo.shop.
