Description

Product Overview

For the shooter seeking a specialized, close-range solution for pest control, the CCI Shotshell 38 Special Ammo is a purpose-built tool. This 200-round case contains CCI’s unique shotshell cartridges, each loaded with 100 grains of fine lead shot. Designed specifically for revolvers chambered in .38 Special or .357 Magnum, this Ammunition is engineered for situations where traditional bullets are less effective. It is the ideal choice for landowners, gardeners, hikers, and rural homeowners who need to humanely and effectively manage small pests at very close distances. The primary use of this CCI shotshell ammo is to deliver a consistent, spreading pattern to neutralize snakes, rodents, and other small vermin within a range of approximately 10-15 feet, making it a staple for practical field carry.

Key Features

• 200-Round Capacity Case: Packaged as a full case containing 20 reusable 10-round boxes, providing ample supply for practice and repeated use in the field.
• 100-Grain Lead Shot Load: Each cartridge is filled with a measured charge of fine lead shot, optimized to produce a dense, consistent pattern for reliable pest elimination.
• Specialized Shotshell Design: Features CCI’s proprietary capsule system that contains the shot, allowing it to cycle cleanly through revolver cylinders and barrel without fouling the bore with plastic wadding.
• Reusable Packaging: The individual 10-round boxes are durable and designed for reuse, offering convenient storage for loaded rounds or spent brass in your range bag or workshop.
• Minimal Over-Penetration Risk: The shot disperses energy quickly, making it inherently safer for use in environments like barns, sheds, or gardens where backdrop is a critical consideration.

Performance & Applications

The effectiveness of the CCI 38 Special shotshell lies in its application-specific performance. Unlike a single projectile, the spread of shot significantly increases the probability of a hit on a small, fast-moving target. This makes it indispensable for several scenarios.

Snake Control: This is the quintessential use for this ammunition. When encountering venomous snakes in garages, woodpiles, or on walking trails, the spreading pattern allows for a definitive stop without requiring a precision shot on a narrow, moving target. The shot’s energy is concentrated at close range, sufficient for the task while minimizing the danger of a ricochet.

Barn and Shed Vermin: For dealing with rats, mice, or nesting birds in confined, structural spaces, the shotshell provides an effective solution. The limited penetration reduces the risk of damaging walls, tools, or equipment, and the spread compensates for the quick, erratic movements of rodents in low-light conditions.

Garden and Perimeter Defense: Gardeners can use these rounds to protect plots from small, destructive animals. The shot pattern, when used responsibly at appropriate angles, poses less risk of traveling beyond the intended target area compared to a standard bullet, making it a considered choice for populated rural areas.
