Well, I guess a 12 gauge with slugs might have damaged the swimming pool.
“Well, I guess a 12 gauge with slugs might have damaged the swimming pool.”
That slug is bigger around than the snake.
I have Speer shot cups loaded with number 9 lead shot for 38 Special (use in my 357 magnum revolver).
It is not 12 gauge, but it will kill a snake very quickly without damaging much around it.
