    Shooters Choice in Dover had 9mm, .40, .45, .223, and I think 7.62. Got a box of 9 and a box of the .223

    Bought a few packs myself ...

    Stocking stuffers for my gun-nut family and friends. Just wait until they open them up. :shocked2:

    That reminds me ... I shouldn't hang those stockings to close to the fireplace. Wouldn't be prudent. :nono:

    After the successful launch of Zombie Max

    Next up for Hornady ...

    Werewolf Max - Hollow points with silver insert

    Vampire Max - You guessed it ... Hollow points with wooden insert

    Progressive Max - Forget expensive hollow point rounds, kneecap 'em with a .22 and beat them with a rolled-up copy of the Constitution. They deserve a slow and painful demise ...

    And an education to boot. :innocent0

    Where they send me.
    I think it's cool and will buy a box for decoration/conversation. However, I don't see it being a collector item since so many people bought it as such. The Black Talon was an entirely different situation due to the press and gov't getting into it.

    Has anyone actually shot any of it? What does it really compare against?

    I thought it would be fun to build a box with a glass front, like a fire extinguisher box, with my AR and a box of that ammo inside. I would just set it up over my reloading bench when company came over. And of course put a label on it saying "in case of zombies, break glass."

    I'm on vacation for the remainder of the year, so this might have to happen.

    i keep waiting for them to accept my design, the herpemax. It's a hornady ftx, only the polymer insert is replaced with a small vial of the herpes virus. If the badguy lives through getting shot, he'll be itching and burning for the rest of his life as a reminder that he f^cked with the wrong person.

    Those look awesome. I will definitely have to get some of those for stocking stuffers.

    This definitely has to happen. I might have to steal your idea. :D
