Normal arrows will probably break if you shoot zombies in the head. Honestly ammo should never be a problem as either there will be tons of other humans around shooting the zombies, or there is so much ammo available that you could quickly load up with unlimited ammo for your favorite gun/guns.

The estimate of 10's of billions of round in the US means even if it was 1 human to every 10,000 zombies, each human should in theory be able to easily find enough ammo to blow away the 10k zombies even if they waste 10 shots per kill.

In the above scenerio, that means of the 200 million or so adult mobile population (zombie kids be a pain tho), 20k of them would be humans.

Just to make numbers easy, lets say there are 20billion rounds in the US, that means each human would have 1 million rounds if it was divided evenly (which it obviously wouldn't).

If each human took 10 shots to kill a zombie on average that would still mean 100k kills per human. 20k*100k=2billion dead zombies (with only 200million adult ones in the us).

Ammo wouldn't be a problem

Id have to procure any extra ammo and surely I wouldnt be the only one looking for some. I aint trying to kill or get killed over a box of ammo.

And why would a normal arrow break when as far im aware it doesnt on humans. Shit just forgot I got access to a crossbow as well. Not mine but its in the house. My arrows I believe are typical hunting arrows. Id probably need to go get a better now though mines just a practice bow.

I'd still lean towards melee options if they are indeed super slow though and save ammo for if they are in a group
