But please note, Hornady Zombie Max ammunition is not a toy. It 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 Zombie Max ammunition.:eek:

Well i think you will only find this for sale in the US.;)
There is a youtube clip about it too.
A bit ridiculus if you ask me.
I thought Hornady was a bit more serious then this???:eek:

Well True.It might be a good hunting round in 223 and 308;)
But to me it looks more like a sales trick:rolleyes:

Id imagine that given the fact that they market them by saying not to be used on animal, Veg, or minneral that they may not be worth actually loading into a gun,, ?? I mean they give no guarantee if balistic qualities or anything.. Simply will stop a zombie dead.. or undead as the case may be ha..

Do you reckon zombie hunting is good enough reason to put on the FCA1. If they're the fast kind, like in 28 days later, you might even have grounds for a semi with a high cap mag.

After all they are a terrible scourge and need to be culled

haha

Hmmm would these be classified as shooting at lifelike human targets over here??
After all they are now the dead,so hardly human anymore???:D

They just do adds like that to sell things to the american market, i was on a range a few weeks back in buffalo NY and there was a lad there looking for the most damaging home defence ammo they had, he was shown ones called extreme shock and told they could blow a leg off, he bought 3 boxes (150 rounds) plus his range ammo, that's a lot of legs!

The US market always has to keep producing new and improved and extra powerful products to keep there customers happy

Grizzly 45

Which of course feeds media hype and the anti gun crowd get somthing new to get their underwear in a twist about.

Cant wait to see what the Brady bunch will make of Zombie killing ammo!! No doubt if it saves just one Zombies life[???] it will be worth banning it!:rolleyes::D

I wish...

I find too often that American ammo is underpowered because it is underpowdered.

I have heard that because of the lawyers in the states, manufacturers tend to err on the side of a bit less powder. All the reloaders (Stateside) that I know verify this.

This is why I like Hornady. They usually load to the correct specifications.

I tried to get the Zombie ammo, but no one has it, they're just taking orders.

I for one will be using buckshot when the zombies come.

Actually, they are the cheapest I have seen a case of ten boxes goes for $169.99 with free delivery in the States. Looks like they are not shipping until Nov 4.

I like the dislcaimer

Order a case of Hornady Zombie Max 223 Remington ammo bulk, receive free shipping..

Also, if there are no Zombies to be shot in your area, you should practice on, wait for it, of course, a zombie target. (Not kidding)

On a serious note, these things are supposed to have some new bullet, correct?[/QUOTE]

I am half tempted to bring one home with me, anyone want a shot?

I cannot imagine what I would say to TSA or the baggage people if they were to see "bleeding ex girlfriend" in the case...
