.223 Zombie Round Poll

[lovemachine]

I'm gonna use the cheap .223 I bought from Wal-Mart.

I really don't think the zombies will be too picky what I use.

whatever you use, remember to double tap

This.

Although to boost the fun factor I would love to get my hands on a flamethrower for some zombie killing.

Do you really want to smell that?

 

[aaronsbig16g]

Good point, So I'll need to add some sort of mask or respirator to the list.

Yea... lets set some walking dead on fire... so they will walk around and set other things on fire. Pretty soon, you've burnt down entire cities (maybe even your own fortress).

The Zombie Survival Guide is your friend.

We need a good ZOMBIE OUTBREAK!

 

[Goodcat]

I'll keep my pounders loaded with birdshot.

Read the Day By Day Armageddon. No thanks. I would take an economic collapse or EMP any day.

As far as round to use, if it ain't suppressed then to won't make much difference.

Whatever largest caliber you can shoot to the best of your ability. Suppressors are necessary for the stray'd zombie as to not attract more from the group as a whole because of random noise.

I plan on carrying an AR-15, suppressed M&P 9mm and the wife will carry a suppressed 10/22 and integrally suppressed Buckmark.

I am going to deviate from the pack and give Max Brook's survival guide a thumbs down for inaccurate and terrible information.

I feel a 22lr will be ok for Zombies attacks. As of now we have been vigilant in our control of the Zombies. We have been Zombie free for years in this country. Keep up the good work!!!

A .223 round of any grain should dispense of a zombie with little issues.

 

[Rob377]

Zombies laugh at 223/5.56.

They're dead and dried out, so you can't rely on any hydrostatic shock effect.

 

[ViperJock]

Silly people, don't you know the only real way to kill a zombie is with a .30 cal M1 carbine.

Agreed. Better go 30 cal. IMO go with a 10g shotgun. Obliterate the soft rotting flesh. .223 just go straight through without tearing cause the meat is rotten. Hit them with a wall of lead.

I think a certain congress woman proved that not just any round will distroy the brain. so I would try to stick with a round that will either bounce around in the skull or expand enough to cause substanial damage.

Good point, I don't think I have read that book I'll have to check it out for sure.

 

[stormryder]

I just got done watching the Anime KITE & Kite Liberator, I want the round the main charactors use.
EXPLODING BULLETS RULE!!!!

is 7.62 nato Fal too much, i love my AR but im really on an Fal kick right now. im happy with any .223/5.56 if only headshots count. as for a nailing a zombie in the head and it not fully killing them, they'll probably still be knocked out, or you could just fire again. .22 would be great if you hangin out on a roof all day poppin zombies from a secure location, i wouldnt go running around with it as a primary though, consider .22 ammo is not the most reliable ammo and rimfire in magazines isn't as reliable as rimless for feeding, thats a big risk to take, if you need thousands of rounds of ammo you need a camp, your not humping it around.

Zombies wont be that much of a problem ,in my county,With the meth problem,they wont have any teeth.
