Zombie ammo FTW!

So me and wolf six stopped off at academy sports and found these: I am so picking up a few boxes of these

I noticed a promotion for those during haloween but I dont get it, whats the difference between those and normal ammo?

The little green ballistic tips, and the disclaimer on the hornady website.



Disclaimer: Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition is NOT a toy (IT IS LIVE AMMUNITION), but is intended only to be used on…ZOMBIES, also known as the living dead, undead, etc. No human being, plant, animal, vegetable or mineral should ever be shot with Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition. Again, we repeat, Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition is for use on ZOMBIES ONLY, and that's not a nickname, phrase or cute way of referring to anybody, place or thing. When we say Zombies, we mean…ZOMBIES!




Zombie Max™ - Just in case!

Be PREPARED – supply yourself for the Zombie Apocalypse with Zombie Max™ ammunition from Hornady®! Loaded with PROVEN Z-Max™ bullets... yes PROVEN Z-Max™ bullets (have you seen a Zombie?). Make sure your "bug out bag" is ready with nothing but the best!

whats the price of it compared to normal ammo?

It depends on the caliber.

Almost $1 per bullet for .223

More than double the price of normal ammo. I paid $6.95 for 20 rounds of remmington .223

If your a hunter like me your gonna pay close to 45 dollars for a box of 20 anyways. i have to have the best of bullets when im huntin. i cant use el cheapo. I think the easeist thing to compare this to is a quality hornady hunting round with a new package and a different color ballistic tip

Hornady website says $24.53 for 20 rounds.

So just what kind of research or tests did they do to be able to label as "PROVEN?"

Seems like this is flagrant false advertisemnet on behalf of Hornady's pursuit for the almighty dollar.

Besides, after the apocolypse begins you just need enough ammo to get you to the closest gun store, because during the initial chaos everything you can carry is free.

Do your financial future a favor and invest that money.

Ehhhhh your right, but im still buying some just for that factor cool factor. Hey guys i got zombie killin bullets

Well it may not be a bad idea. I would'nt be surprised if Hornady was sued over these types of claims so those 20 round boxes could possibly double, or more, in value when theyre pulled from the shelves.

I mean if a woman can spill a fresh HOT cup of coffee, that she just purchased, in her lap, and sue McDonalds for the damages and win.....

yeah, if it doesn't kill zombies, get your money back. hornady makes quality ammo, this is a good collector's item. if they stop selling them, 20 years down the road, you can sell em for at least $100 per box, maybe more.

True, heck all ammo is going to be collector's items once the Socialists take over. lol

They just dont come in .270 looks like im getting .308 an 7.62

This is the same as the critical defense ammo, but they are very smart to market it.$$$$$$$$$$$$
