We also found a big rattle snake coiled up at our front door one day.
I shot it with the pellet gun but all it did was **** him off. Went to
Walmart the next day and bought a Winchester shotgun. (had to wait 3
days to pick it up though).



A .38 loaded with snake shot does the trick nicely. Got both, never had to use either... yet.
