Picked up some Zombie Max ammo today...

[charlessummers]

But that got me thinking... if I'm using this for self defense and I'm forced to draw and fire at a bad guy, I'm sure that the defense lawyer will bring this up in front of a jury that I was trying to be a wannabe-vigilante or something. How will this look in my own defense? :-\

I looked at the Zombie ammo. I have to seriously wonder if this is a marketing guise and that Zombie is really just Critical Defense with a lime green tip instead of red. Comments from anybody ? ? ?

[Schadenfreude]

I have some of this stuff - i bought it as a novelty collectors item though

That's actually all it is. The "Zombie" part is just a marketing gimimik for fun but it's just their normal self defense loads.

If you're that concerned about it... just buy some regular JHPs.

Hornady's disclaimer

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!

Seems like they are not going to have a lot of repeat customers to me.

Yeah I wanna pick up a box just to keep as a novelty item...I imagine they wont make it for a long time, and if the zombie apocoaypse does NOT happen, it could be worth something someday, lol.

I have Zombie Max in my P238 in my pocket right now. As was stated, this is just green Hornady Critical Defense..nothing more, nothing less. However, That being said...I have read a couple of different opinions on "Critical Defense Ammo" vs. Plain old "hollow Points". Does anyone have an honest opinion on this debate?
