this applies to both the projectiles and the loaded ammo.
if you can find a bullet with a green zmax tip, they already make the exact same bullet as either a vmax, sst, or amax (just match the caliber and weight to know what you have).
with the loaded ammo, its the exact same ammo, loaded to the same spec as the non-zmax equivalent. (ie: horanady 308 168gr zmax = hornady .308 168gr amax match)
its just a cute marketing gimmick for hornady to sell more ammo. enjoy the slightly lower price and shoot the heck out of it.
