Marketing!
 
I thought maybe it came in different flavors like gummy bears!
My culled down Handi's are the 45-70, and then I have a few others to keep it company...357 Mag/Max. .45 LC/.454 Casull Carbine, .243 Ultra, and 20 gauge Tracker II.

I guess since you are only supposed to shoot Zombies with the Z-Max this is actually Display ammo since last time I checked Zombies don't exist in this world.   Their video looks like they hired Onion News Network to put it together.

Thought it was funny, seems our friends at Hornady are in the spirit this Holloween. Might pick up a few boxes for keep sakes
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children what it was once like in the United States when men were free." ~Ronald Reagan
