Would you trust these 9mm bullets for Zombie Defense?

[grousemaster]

$9.64 per box = Wolf 9mm 115 grain at Fleet Farm (with tax, we'll assume the gas is inconsequential) - a case costs $192.80
$9.99 per box = RWS 9mm 124 grain at WeaponsWorld.com (no tax, shipped) - a case lot costs $199.99

Technically you are getting more material for your money with the extra 9 grains of lead per round with the RWS (I have always preferred the heavier 124 grain in my 9mm's, but to each their own)... if you're really chucking ball ammo at Zombies the extra weight is going to be a plus... not to mention this is also also brass cased, boxed primed ammo produced in Europe and loaded to NATO spec that's good enough to be Sig Sauer's go to test-ammo. If you don't mind picking up your brass you could probably sell it to a re-loader and make $10-$20 easily offsetting the difference in price.. and it's SIGNIFICANTLY better ammo.

If I hadn't just started reloading I'd be all over this like white on rice.

How about .40 ammo? Wolf/Tula is $12.97....anything close to that cheap in brass?

That Military classic ammo is a cut below wolf, I have found it to be dirtier and less reliable.

If you don't want to order off the internet, here is 1000 rounds of brass S&B for $190 but you got to pay the man the sales tax too.

Call ahead. They don't have a regular storefront. Mostly internet orders and gun shows. I always let them know what I want by e-mail or phone and set-up a day and time to pick-up.

I'd use a 9mm no problem. Always double tap.

I TRIED not to weigh in on this discussion but I feel, for the safety of all involved, that I must.

A 9mm for zombie control? ARE YOU MAD?

Kill shot for a zombie is the brain pan. Not just two in the head. You must sever the the brain from the spinal cord or cause enough damage that the brain will no longer function.

.22 to "bounce" around in the skull? Puh_leaze! NOT ENOUGH DAMAGE
9mm will work but how many rounds will it take. Can you make the kill shot under stress? On the move? Might work one on one but multiple zombies in a tight area for movement and you are zombie chow. Do you hear me? ZOMBIE CHOW!

Now if you want stopping power. 12 gauge. The street howitzer. The preferred tool of zombie elimination squads world wide. Don't just stop the zombie threat, take its whole damn head off!

The zombie apocalypse is a real threat. Take is seriously and you may survive.

[Scott Notaeh]

I call BS on all this. Why would you let a zombie get into pistol or shotgun range?

Battle rifle.

[yuppiejr]

The shotgun only works if you've replaced your other arm with a chainsaw... otherwise you need to park up on the roof of your Sporting Goods store with a scoped hunting rifle (battle rifle would work) and case of your favorite hard liquor...

[Mo_the_Mouse]

Of course long range is always preferable.

Problem with roof top is how do you get down? Its a problem of ammo consumption rate vs zombie infiltration rate.

That's when the shotgun/chainsaw arm come in to play... or just have Red Jacket refurbish your surplus flamethrower and have an undead BBQ...

Flaming zombies are BAD!!!

[The Lance]

looks like I need to go buy a bigger gun Good advice guys...


But I do have this which requires no ammo no reloading just straight decapitation and re-sharpening when I get to a safe and secure area

[grousemaster]

I buy my 9mm from Wal-Mart. Its 9.50/box of 50 last I bought it. Brass-cased too.

what brand is that? the Local walmart only has Blazer and Winchester

Federal Champion.

That Federal Champion spiked up to $11.97 at twin cities walmarts now....Tula is still $9.47

oddly for me there isn't even any federal champion ammo at the wal-mart in the village of blaine.. But meh I found cheap brass elsewhere

[rukwikenuf]

i'm not sure i'd trust 9mm against the Zombie Apocalypse, i'd like to use 12ga, .45ACP OR .223/5.56. that's just me, though.
