I used to shoot the CCI shotshells out of a Norinco 1911 with a tired recoil spring.
It would actually cycle the round.
I had moved into piece of property in a formerly unoccupied valley of about 800 acres and there were hundreds of rattlers there.
I killed 13 the first year.
The CCI Shotshells in .45 would turn a big rattler into stone from about four feet.
Nothing else was that effective. One second a buzzing menace, the next just stone still.
