Guess I better call Hornady and set them straight.  I sure wish they'd just bulk package the V's and sell them cheap like the Z's. I paid 9.5 cents a piece for a couple thousand. They were the only good thing about the zombie craze. Well, that and seeing all the old guys complain about the zombie craze.
Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!

He even went as far to explain that having two different production lines for products that are this similar "would not be cost effective."
While I don't dispute the theory, that logic alone would say that the Vmax and the Amax are identical, and couldn't possibly have different lines. Reasonably the interbond and SST's are probably no different, with that line of thinking. They state(website) that the Z's use AMP jackets, but not the V's. Any customer service rep who answers the phone, while usually polite, aren't generally known for technical details. Just call Hodgy, every phone call will net you a differing answer.
I'm a firm believer in the theory of " If it bleeds, I can kill it".

If the Z's shoot like the V's and you are only paying $95.00 / K, I would STFU and shoot.

Horn. did pack 40 gr. Vmax in 250 boxes.. Not sure if they still do.. The Zombie thing was a deal.. Bought some cheap in 40 gr.
Mule Deer, I knew there would be differences from one lot of bullets to another, but didn't realize it was so noticeable..

My point is, why does Hornady change the tip color and the price goes down? Throw them V maxes in a 500 or 600 round package and let me save a little money like the 75 Amax and hpbt.

I have several different vintages of .308" 150 grain Interlock flat bases to compare, and they have really changed lately. The latest ones have fatter ogives and bulbous tips, looking almost like a Winchester Power Point. Unfortunately I can't get them to shoot as well as the older ones in several of my 308's.
A similar change happened to the 7mm 139 flat base a while back.

I bought a box of .45 ACP Z-max ammo for the sole purpose of giving the box to a pretty girl who loves the TV show. Haven't had occasion to try them on "game" yet, thank God.

The 123 Z are SST for the AK platform. I think that's the only thing not mentioned.
