    I've seen this ammo
    It's a bit of tongue-in-cheek humor by one of the ammo companies, which replaced the red polymer tips on some of its sporting and self-defense ammo with green polymer tips (the ammo is still top-quality and the bullets function exactly the same as red-tipped ones). The box for the zombie ammo is green and contains some silly directions for killing zombies. I guess the ammo company decided to exploit the current rage for zombies as exemplified by "The Walking Dead" and other shows in that genre, as did another manufacturer, which is selling light-green plastic "zombie" ammo boxes complete with tongue-in-cheek labeling. I'm waiting for ammo companies to manufacture cartridges with silver bullets for killing werewolves, or garlic-lubricated bullets for killing vampires (also popular in TV shows and movies).
