    With kids and pets around you did the right thing. Visiting my brother in Florida I had to watch my step on his back property as so far found three big eastern Diamondbacks. I finally talked him into his first gun.

    Copperheads will take over all around the farmhouse and even move inside. Once they take over an old farmhouse, forget it. Even the baby copperheads are deadly. One of our friends got bit on her finger and almost died that night. We had them by the dozens and dozens all over our farm. We had no choice but to kill them, the children come first. Our farm being rocky and mountainous, no way could we keep ahead of them. The revolver killed over 2 dozen one summer just in one place by the creek where the kids wanted to play, but could not. We loved the farm but not the copperheads.

    Ran across a rattler when i lived in texas. Right outside my door and about 4 feet from where my puppy was playing. Grabbed the pup went insideand got the 12 gauge. Quick and efficient. Took the head clean off.😮

    Yes they do! Its absolutely amazing how well they blend in with leaf litter. In fact I have an AR-15 (& a 22 rifle for Squirrels) that I painted up like that in Duracoat with an air brush and I have to be careful if I lay it down in the late fall or winter...I might not be able to find it again!

The Herritige Rough Rider SingleAction revolver looks like a possible worthwhile Personal Safety Defensive Device, a worthwhile investment? Do you feel that the Herritige Rough Rider 22 caliber revolver was adequate for the job? What type and how many many rounds were used to eliminate the threat of the Copper Head Snake?

    I appreciate your comment. I always have the rough rider with me in the woods, or pretty much anywhere I go. It’s cheap, well made for the price and hasn’t let me down yet after close to 1k rounds. It was definitely adequate for the job with the snake shot. It took me a couple of shots, mostly due to the fact that I never shoot that gun at point blank range. I’ve heard a lot about your bullets and the eras gone molds. I have to get my hands on one at some point!

    I have mine loaded up with rat shot also for rattlers or moccasins if need be. I would have to change out to Remington sub sonic CBees for armadillos though. Sounds like a cap gun. Can't hear the shot outside of ten feet. I really like those CBees. They do the job with little noise. I used to use the .410 single shot or 20 gauge double for snakes but the revolver is easier although the rat shot has less effective range than birdshot. I also used to use my Winchester 190 for armadillos but again the revolver is easier. Since you had the shovel you could have just lopped its head off with that. Thanks for sharing.

There are plenty of rattlers in orange groves and at first he used to use a shovel for rattlers that he kept in the trunk of the car. That was until my mom got him a single shot .410 he kept in the trunk. He still kept the shovel because he needed it to dig the car out if he got stuck.
