I think they are called sea serpents in LCWhy are you killing rattle snakes in Lincoln City
and the longer the rifled barrel the more the shot pattern fails to open up properly.1. Yes
2. Murdering filthy rats
3 & 4. Probably not, Would not cycle my Ruger 22/45 or Walther PPK reliably.
It's a 5 to 10 foot round. The pattern opens up ridiculously quickly. Shooting through a rifled barrel makes it even worse.
I get over to Glass Butte in eastern Oregon. Lots of rattle snakes out there. I actually want one to make a hat band.Why are you killing rattle snakes in Lincoln City
I practice shooting at dime size targets at close distances with ordinary carry ammo. That is, a snake brain.
Not really any good for rattlers- just not powerful enuff. I use .38/357 shotshells in a 2" Smith snubby. Or the first two rounds in my 4" .357. Having to use .22 shot, even CCI is scary when dealing with snakes.Has anyone here used 22LR shotshells?
If so, what did you use them for?
Will they work in semi-automatic firearms?
Like a 10-22 or a ruger semi-auto pistol?
I was thinking of using v them in a Ruger Bearcat to fend off rattle snakes.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
