Why not as calcium/magnesium/zinc-ascorbate?

One benefit an ascorbate may have is less stomach discomfort. Although since the dosage is lowish to begin with, I don't think ascorbic acid would be that big a problem for most.
What about something like Pureway C? I never tried it, but there is a little data suggesting it may be better than regular ascorbic --

Another option is a purely food based C, like acerola or amla. It may provide some extras, like bioflavonoids, and components of food missing from ascorbic, but it'd be more expensive and bulky in the capsule.
One possible plus for food based is it could be a good selling point. People generally prefer natural food-based nutrients when possible. Or Pureway, assuming their studies are correct -- you could claim a benefit over regular ascorbic on the label.
