.22LR Shotshells Are Not Very Effective, Are They?
I just shot a rat in the garage with .22LR shotshells. They weren't very effective. He was still squeaking after the third. This was at about 3 ft range. I had to use a .22 Short to put him out of his misery. Fortunately I didn't hit my 911's rear decklid that was leaning against the wall right next to him.
I always thought people carried these loads for snakes. I now don't think a .22LR shotshell would be sufficient against a reasonable size snake.
