Where is the Werewolf ammo? They should make it like the ammo in MHI.
A while back, and I mean years ago, there was this fellow that would plate bullets for you. Silver or gold. Some people (not my kind I guess) would wear plated 9mm bullets on gold chains as jewelry in the 90's. I'm sure you can still get it done. I also saw some real ones cast for a .38spcl. when I was a kid. Sure they were just a jest too.
I think this zombie ammo is the dumbest thing Hornady has ever done. 90% of the bullets I shoot in handguns and half in rifles are Hornady, but I'd never buy this stuff. If they make it limited for ammo collectors, there are very serious ammo collectors and they are fun folks to talk to, then I understand... If this becomes part of the line, they've lost it, and I can't support that kind of stuff. I take shooting seriously, I have fun and all, but I don't daydream about killing anything. Or fantasize about it either.
If they make it part of the line, I may keep using their pistol bullets because there isn't a better one, but I can get my rifle bullets, and I shoot a LOT more of them, from Sierra, Nosler, or Berger, bulletsmiths that take this stuff seriously.
Perhaps it is just a bad idea and goes away. I hope so. Otherwise, why not come out with a box of "copkillers" (you know, with the warning though that they should NEVER be used on anything...) and while we are at it, why not some silver bullets in a werewolf box with a similar warning. How childish.
I guess the problem I have with it is that it totally misses the market. Kids that would like this are too young to be messing with defense ammo outside of supervision, and they need to be learning fundamentals and such. Learning to take a possibly dangerous sport seriously. Older folks have no such use. That leaves a handful of immature kids and serious ammo collectors, hardly a big enough demographic to roll out something like this.
And wait until the Brady Bunch gets ahold of it. It'll be great that they'll lose sleep over something so ridiculous, but sad they'll have "real ammo" that we don't need any of this stuff. That was the AWB arguement in case you forgot, since AR's had NO place as a sporting or hunting firearm, you plain didn't need 'em. My how things have changed.
