CCI ammo - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

ASH302 · 08-07-2015, 04:23 PM

so now being out in the county on 14acres, I know I cannot carry the good old 410 shotgun with me on my mower. I had to clear the front and back pastures and the back held a few snakes, I finally got my .40 cal and took it with me, only saw one after I had it with me and I'm sure I missed the **** thing. the one before that was a copper head and tried to run him over, but i'm sure he sneaked on by. my ex-father n law told me about the CCI rat shot ammo, which I finally got on line and finally found some for my .40 cal, which was kewl because the place was right up the road. So now I am ready!

I know it will be a endless journey of snakes being around here, but each one I shoot is one less to deal with.
Hope I do not offend any snake lovers, but the snakes are not welcome out here.
So has anyone else used the CCI ammo? if so pros/cons about it?

didnt realize they had it for a .40. It sounds like the stuff Ive used in a 22 before, it worked fine on small snakes but I wouldnt be thrilled about it on a bigger snake. I would imagine it would do just fine in your caliber.

I saw it a lot for the 22, 9, 45 and others
I figure the 40 cal will do fine, my ex father n law has it for his 45 and killed a cotton mouth with no problem, so i'm sure the 40 will do good

Look out for Cobras. Some idiots are bringing them into Texas. One found dead on the road in Austin and one in a hotel in Houston. Like we don't have enough rattlers, copperheads, and moccasins.

Just saw this...

You can legally keep a monocled cobra in Texas. State law does not require a license for having one, but it does require a controlled exotic animal permit that you can get with a $30 fee.

if they go bang every time you pull the trigger and don't leave a lot of residue in the chamber or barrel then there's no issues.

ASH302 · 10-23-2015, 11:56 AM

I was going to reply to your other post about watching out for the snakes

With that pond I'm pretty sure there are some Moccasins also. Have fun and be careful.

CCI is good quality ammo! I use the shotshells in .22, .22WMR, 38 &357 Mag so far. Pretty short range in comparison but that makes it safer in town! LOL...I got 6-7 gophers with the .22 one big RAT with the WMR...and a patterning target with the 38's & 357...I love them a lot...They have a plastic cup to hold the shot while traveling down the barrel. Protects the rifling that way.

The Rat I was kinda proud of....he ran like lightening I drew the Ruger Single Six ...thumbed the hammer back & dropped him in the blink of an eye! Deader than a doornail at 100 feet! Ok make that 10-12 feet....but he was moving!
