Double Tap Snake Shot .41 Magnum 175gr #9 Shot

Double Tap Snake Shot for .41 Magnum Revolvers

Double Tap Ammunition has engineered a practical solution for revolver shooters who need effective close-range defense against snakes and small pests. The Snake Shot cartridge combines two distinct components for superior field performance.

Design and Construction

Shot Pattern Control

• #9 birdshot does not engage the revolver's rifling, eliminating centrifugal spread
• Results in tight, predictable patterns downrange
• Designed specifically for revolver ballistics, not rifle performance

Penetration and Cutting Power

• 55-grain hardcast full wadcutter sits beneath the shot column
• Penetrates and cuts into the target for dynamic stopping effect
• Provides performance beyond simple birdshot alone

Ballistics and Performance

• Caliber: .41 Magnum
• Total Payload: 240 pieces #9 shot plus 55gr hardcast solid
• Velocity: 1000 fps (measured from 4-inch barrel)
• Recoil: Notably gentle compared to standard .41 Magnum loads
• Packaging: 20 rounds per box

Practical Applications

Snake Shot excels in situations where you need to neutralize threats at close range while managing recoil and noise. The combination of shot and hardcast wadcutter gives you versatility in the field without the penalty of heavy recoil that can affect follow-up accuracy.
