Looking for a new 9mm carry load.

[wlewisiii]

I like Winchester Talon/T-Series. I currently have the 127 gr +P+ but will be shifting over to the +P 124gr version as that's what I understand is in current production.

Has anybody tried the hornady zombie max stuff? $17.99 a box looks tempting but I don't know if its any good. I do hand load but like to keep HD guns loaded with decent store bought stuff.

Actually , the only reason I didn't buy it is bc its called zombie max.

i THINK the Zombie Max is basically the same stuff as the Hornady CD ammo with a green tip. anyone know more about it? please correct me if im wrong

 

[wlewisiii]

I'm pretty sure the Zombie thing is just a repackaging. But why pay $18 for 20 when you can get something like the Winchester Talons for $27 for 50? Just check either of the links to SGAmmo in this thread.

I wouldn't order enough to make it worth it after shipping. I haven't seen those locally.

The Zombie max are the same as the CD they are just using the Zombie idea to sell more. Although the ZM has a plain brass case and a green poly plug but still I haven't seen it locally. And to make things worse the CD are now up to $23/per20 due to recent demand of SD ammo...


Why cant Democrats just leave our guns alone?

I was at bass pro sat. and they had the zombie max for$17.99.

What i carry

In my house gun and medium to full size 9m.m. pistols, I use FEDERAL 124 grain HYDDRO SHOK +P+. This was the carry ammo that I was issued when I carried a GLOCK 17 on duty. No one ever reported having a problem with this ammo or any lack of stopping power in the field. It is also accurate.

A less fierce load for my smaller 9m.m. pistols is the standard velocity FEDERAL 124 grain HYDDRO SHOK. Like the +P+ round, it is very accurate in all my guns. We were issued this as PRACTICE ammo, so I still have some left over.

For practice is all my gun and in guns that do not feed the HYDRO SHOK well, I use REMINGTON 115 grain jacketed hollow point. I buy it in 100 round boxes at WALMART. I also use it in compact 9m.m. pistols. The recoil is mild.

The only other load that I use is the COR BON Powerball 9m.m. round. It is the only expanding round I have found to work in an old SIG P6 (225) police trade in that I have and is used by my wife who loves the feel of the grip.
