We shall talk about guns,ammo,optics etc...
"Black tip" bullets are still out there. 30 caliber rounds. Many left over from WW2 in 30-06 casings. Might be illegal in some states (make sure to check), but I hear you can cleanly pull the bullets from this old surplus ammo and load them into .308 casings. The weight is perfect at 165 grains. It's a hardened steel insert encased in copper. Highly devastating penetration capabilities. Here's an excellent video on the topic:

Are there any kevlar vests today that could stop these black tips?

I prefer a slightly more primitive solution:
TenPoint crossbow 470 fps. Nice and quiet, and it will go through a cop's helmet:

Crossbows ! Great idea.
More than one way to use too. Ever need to get a heavy line high up into a tree ? Check out what these arborists do:

Here's a tactical crossbow that can shoot up to 6 arrows.

Not as much power as the TenPoint, but very handy in situations where you are surrounded by zombies and need to reload quickly.
Made in Germany. Available starting this summer.....https://www.ek-archery.com/product/1

Like that. Good n stealthy. If noise isn't a concern, but inflicting major damage is, don't forget 3" buffered magnum in #4 or 00 buckshot for your 12 guage (if it can take 3" shells) Buffered holds a tight pattern. Tears stuff apart. Sportsmans Guide is a great place to stock up on useful items.
