Double Tap
Double Tap Ammunition's 357 Snake Shot is a specialized handgun round designed for shooters who need a reliable defense option against snakes and other close-range threats. This 357 Magnum loading uses a snake shot payload—essentially a shotgun-style pattern of small pellets—rather than a traditional bullet, making it an unconventional but effective choice for handling venomous snakes in field conditions or around camp. Each box contains 20 rounds, sold in a case of 50 (two boxes).
Snake shot ammunition has a legitimate place in the toolkit of hunters, outdoorsmen, and rural property owners who encounter pit vipers, rattlesnakes, and water moccasins. Unlike standard 357 Magnum defensive or hunting loads, the pellet pattern performs best at close distances and spreads naturally as it travels downrange, similar to a shotgun slug pattern. This design trades the penetration and extended range of conventional ammunition for a wider hit probability on small, fast-moving targets—a practical trade-off when your threat is coiled in front of you rather than distant.
Double Tap Ammunition builds a reputation for consistent, quality handloads. This snake shot round carries that same focus on reliability you'd expect from the brand. It's worth noting that snake shot performance and legality can vary by region, so confirm local hunting and carry laws before use. For shooters dealing with snake encounters during backcountry hunts, camping trips, or property management, having a few rounds of purpose-built ammunition on hand can be a smart precaution.

Snake shot is a specialized handgun round loaded with small pellets rather than a single bullet. When fired, the pellets spread in a pattern similar to a shotgun, making it easier to hit fast-moving small targets like snakes. It's optimized for close-range encounters and loses effectiveness at distance.
Snake shot legality varies by state and local jurisdiction. Some states restrict it for self-defense carry, while others allow it for wildlife management. Check your local and state laws before purchasing or carrying this ammunition.
Snake shot performs best at close range, similar to a shotgun pattern. Effectiveness decreases significantly with distance. It is designed for immediate threats, not extended-range shooting.
