Snake Gun

Looking for a side arm for no other reason than killing poisonous snakes , yesterday we killed 7 cotton mouths with sticks and a machette , and a 4 ft moccasin against a 18 inch machette is not my idea of a fair fight , it is so dry that when ever you find a water hole you find snakes -------- some brand of .22 Mag revolver that will shot rat shot loads is what I am thinking , also like the Judge .410/45 but they are pricey and shells are a bummer to carry --------- what's a good >22mag revolver without breaking the bank and the best brand of rat shot

Ruger Single Six with CCI ratshot.

I agree the ruger single six is a solid choice .I have the regular and magnum cylinders for mine .

nothing like a snake charmer .410. cottonmouths are always seen in numbers during october.

fishfiles, if u want a 22lr r 22lr/22mag revolver check out the heritage roughrider single action only around $230 at academy, r pay close to $600 for ruger single six??? definetly not as good as the ruger, but good for snakes!!! ya the cci rat shot!!!

Taurus Judge, shoots .44 or .410. There is not a better handgun for snakes.

410/45cal

fishfiles did u make up yur mine yet??? just curious!!!

'Snakenapping and Ransom '...all of you are right on using revolvers ...most 22 autos hang -up w/the crimp drag that scores the end of chambers...we use to have a ball w/poison snakes...as long as they wave a white flag w/their hands up ???...check w/Audubon Zoo long ago they would get in a adoption and buying mood ???...cheers ???
