This video tests DoubleTap's Snake Shot Defense ammunition, designed for semi-automatic pistols in 9mm, .45 ACP, and 10mm. Unlike traditional snake shot, this load features a hollow point bullet followed by a payload of #9 shot, intended for both snake deterrence and self-defense against human threats. Testing in ballistics gel demonstrates the effectiveness of the shot payload and the penetration of the leading bullet.
This video introduces DoubleTap DT SnakeShot, a specialized ammunition designed for snake defense and personal protection. Unlike traditional shotshells, it features number 9 shot without a container, preventing rifling damage. A unique hard-cast full wad cutter separates the shot from the powder and provides penetration for dual-duty use. The ammunition is available in seven calibers, including .32 H&R Magnum through .500 S&W Magnum.
This video tests CCI .357 Magnum shotshells, featuring number 9 shot, fired from a Rock Island AL 3.0 snub-nosed revolver with a 2-inch barrel. The test includes penetration through a water-filled milk jug and spread analysis on pizza boxes at 5 and 10 feet. The presenter notes these loads are best suited for small pests like rodents and snakes, not self-defense.
