Dawg Hair, SASS #29557 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Went to the toy store department of Outdoor World and Lo and Behold! they are stocking Hornady"s Zombie Max!!! Started grabbing all I could carry until I realized what was the price per box! No matter. Grabbed the essentials and ran for the cashier's. Then in the car I started to look at what I got. It even comes with instruction on the box on how to use the stuff. Pretty neat! They have this green thingy stuck in the tip of the hollow nose. The box does'nt say what it is but am willing to bet it's made out of some secret stuff which is highly toxic against Zombies! Probably similar to the Holy Water used against Vampires and such! Wow! I'm ready now!! :D Couldn't find any in .223 nor 30-06 nor 8mm Mauser nor 303 Brit nor any of the Russkie stuff Utah Bob is so fond of, but, Oh well!

Pack Saddle Slim, SASS #73122 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 The green stuff is indeed a secret compound which is compacted into the nose of the projectile. Hornady, thus far, has been pretty "hush hush" on its make-up due to pending patents, but a fairly informed source says that it seems to be a condensed form of alien gamma rays that can literally wipe out several zombies at a time just by passing through them. The new boxes have a warning printed on them about not touching the green tip unless you are wearing heavy rubber gloves. If you have inadvertently touched the green tip in your handling of the bullets, it probably wouldn't hurt to either contact your physician or call the local poison control hotline. Apparently, if you're not a zombie and happen to touch the stuff, it won't kill you...but it'll give you a bad case of warts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt. James H. Callahan Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 So what caliber didja get? I've seen that stuff around, but for the price I'm gonna let 'em keep it. I'm still in the process of ordering several kinds of ammo to try out before we stock up. And waiting for $%^%$& UPS to deliver my scope! My new Zombie rifle (in case anybody missed it........or cares) This isn't MINE but I'm too lazy to post a pic.

Mebbe when and if my scope gets here. http://www.hkpro.com...you-got-35.html JHC Just got a box of .380's. I figured it might more effective than the Selier and Belot FMJ's I've been using on my SIG P238. That stuff is pricey, $19.99 for 25 rds. I also got 25 rds of Remington HD Ultimate Home Defense. And that one was real expensive at $23.99 a box. Definitively nothing I'm going to be burning a lot of at the range. They also had 45 Colt, 45 ACP, 38 Special, 9mm and 40 SW and there were a lot of empty slots. The stuff appears to be literally flying off the shelves. On a different note, for quite a while, the Outdoor Life store I frequent in Davie, FL had taken all pistol caliber ammo off the shelves. You had to ask for whatever you wanted and they would bring it out for you. Now everything is back outside. P.S. Nice rifle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were about the only place around anymore who did when I left the area in '06. I use Wolf or Tula 380 for practice and shoot up the good stuff at the end of the year.

Utah Bob #35998 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 For Zombies I use FMJ It really seems to make my day I prefer full jacketed lead When dealing with the not-quite-dead Walkers tend to come in hordes So I recommend you fill your Ford With ball ammo and plenty of it Cause when it hits you'll really love it I nail em when they're in their trance (from far away if I get the chance) But commercial stuff is plenty pricey And the economic times are dicey So Load your own and load em cheap It works just fine on undead creeps.

Sneaky Gun Runner SASS 79775 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Zombie Max is the same as the Critical Defense. I bought a lot last year around Halloween simply because I could it cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have been thinking (???) of the TV Channel. Funny you should ask. Yes they had Goex. The main reason I went there was to see if they had FFFF black powder, .31 cal lead balls and percusion caps for the 1849 Pocket I just bought from Dixie Gun Works. They just had the caps. I'll have to go elsewhere for the black stuff and lead balls. The last time I shot black powder was in 1981 so I've got a lot to learn. Bottom Dealing Mike put the itch on me with his videos.

Foul Mouth Frank Shutz Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Will an M1 Garand work on zombies? They've been working on zombies pretty good since the 1940's. At comforable ranges too. You could get up on the water tower and take out every zombie in town and never work up a sweat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 You fellows are making me feel bad. I keep thinking that I am way over gunned with a .30-06 cartridge for Zombies. Just not sporting. I have always heard "Bring enough gun!". I don't recall hearing "Ya brang too much gun, son!" Maybe I need a new gun in a new caliber? Perhaps a .270 WSM? Naaaa, too much velocity. How about a nice m1 Carbine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
