Hornady zombieMAX ammo

so i just went to the hornady site, then i proceeded to waste my time reading and watching a video about ammo that is made for the chance of a zombie apocolypse.. the youtube test make it look like decent ammo, is there an explanation for why a reputable ammo comp just wasted my time with such BS? or do i just have no sense of humor?

kt,

I am not sure what "zombieMAX ammo" is geared up for. IF I encounter a zombie, I think my 12 gauge will settle his/her hash!

yeah it drives me nuts that they always wanna go so light on the 45 autos. You want to give me a HP or some special fancy dancy make it 200+ grains at least (And I prefer 230) Still gonna hafta get me a box to try in the old milspec 1911.
