    Here is a review of the same stuff (but without the zombie branding):

    "I'm fucking furious, I'm violently angry, and I like it. If you don't know what that feels like then I feel bad for you"

    yes, the zombie pistol ammo is the critical defense ammo only with the red tip changed out with a green one, and usually about 15% cheaper.

    are there restrictions on hollow points in the GWN?

    you can get pretty much anything around here.

    I'd say it should be good stuff. After all it is Zombie rated!

    now do you need different hollow points for zombies that expand more easily because they are partially decomposed?

    Actually, most of Hornady's zombie loads which expand very rapidly. The 5.56 zombie load fragged within 8 inches IIRC, which seems perfect for a brain sized target.

    no just the fudds still run most of the shops here.

    Update. Bass pro opened here a few months back and they carry an assortment. Didn't realize it before. I picked up enough Winchester SXZ from them to keep me going for a while. Seems a good price and the FMJ stuff is supposed to hit in the same spot as the JHP so what is there to lose.
