"I agree, but since my survival plan relies more on keeping mobile, I wouldn't hesitate to toss a claymore out of the back of the supply truck to stop the horde from following since I'll be long gone gone before any more of the undead show up. "

"I'm sorry, I used the word "toss" innappropriately. Let me rephrase my previous statement as "I wouldn't hesitate to place a claymore on the road behind the supply truck as we drove off, with it angled slightly upward so that the center of its approximately 6 foot high blast pattern would definitely hit the zombies in the head, while the 150 foot spread and 150 foot effective range would certainly take out quite a large horde. I would then arm the M18A1 with a time delay fuse so that I could be long gone before the explosion and noise attracted more zombies."

"On History channel there's a show called "Mail Call." For those you haven't seen it, it's a show that covers the ins and outs of military hardware and vehicles throughout the centuries hosted by R. Lee Ermy (Drill instructor of "Full Metal Jacket" fame). They had a thing about Claymores and said the kill zone can be up to 100 yards. Was that exaggeration?"
