    Dang! I was checking out Cabela's ammo sale (got an email from them) and those shotshells are expensive! The 9mm and .45's were about $17 a box of 10!

    I've grabbed the H&R 929, filled it with the CCI shotshells and gone into the attic investigating suspected rodent noises. Didn't get any shots and found that D-Con works better and is safer.

    For snakes, though, I would want centerfire shotshells... the #12, or #11 shot is like salt and the .22's use about a pinch! I used #8 or 7 1/2 when I was loading my own shotshells.

    You definitely need to fire a few to see what happens if you DO use a semi-auto, whether firing or unloading the shells. I remember having trouble with the K9. Unfired ones could not be ejected... too long and the port too tight on the K9, at least.
