At my cabin north of Williams, I have run into quite a few rattlers, If they are far enough away from me and not close to the cabin, I simply say, Vaya con Dios and let them go their way. However once in a while one will be too close to either me or the cabin, in that case I have shot them at close range with a .22 CCI shot shell ( the other brands are indeed " dust " ) with excellent results, one shot is all it takes. The range is normally around 5 feet. Anything beyond that is very Effie. The shot shells are not very power full and are not shotgun shells ( which many people expect them to be ) and work very well for their proper purpose.
