Thread: One Dead Cotton Mouth

We're good with a 22LR revolver, none escape alive. Once shot, throw those moccasins in the burning pit - they stink.

In West Texas, we had those big fat diamondback rattle snakes. Taste just like alligator when cooked right. Not the stinking snakes around here.

I put this one on the burn pile too. The weather shows two days the wind will be at 5 MPH. It will be like a Viking send off.

"The Rifle had Jamed." that sounds like an episode of Swamp People. they either can't find the bullets or the rifle jams. LOL.

The shells were from an older box of 500 rounds. There have been several the firing pin struck the back but most only fed half way through the action. these shells are Winchester but act like seconds, there are 2 out of 50 that dont fire. wonder if the Swamp People got some of the same batch

I have the same for my 9mm that stays at the camp. Best snake dispatcher ever.

I used to shoot them in my 9mm also until I read the fine print. The 9mm shells are loaded with #12 shot and the .45acp are loaded with #9 and it does make a big difference. Until I can afford a stainless Judge that's all I've got to use.

Thanks for the link. I found two places that carry 40 Cal. that are also #9 shot
