Double Tap's 10mm SnakeShot ammunition is a hybrid defensive round that bridges the gap between personal protection and varmint control. Built around a 135-grain jacketed hollow point paired with #9 shot, this 10mm load delivers the stopping power of a handgun round while offering the versatility to handle everything from home defense scenarios to clearing snakes and small pests around the property. Each box contains 20 rounds, with cases of 50 boxes available for serious shooters who want consistent ammunition on hand.
The design reflects a practical philosophy: one round for multiple jobs. The hollow point core penetrates 10–12 inches in ballistic gel while expanding to .65 inches, generating the kind of terminal performance you expect from a defensive load without the over-penetration risk that can matter in confined spaces like a home. The shot component—140 pellets of #9—spreads energy across a wider area, making the round effective on smaller targets like snakes and varmints without unnecessary overkill on larger threats.
If you carry 10mm for self-defense and need a round that won't punch through walls or through-and-through your target into an unintended backdrop, or if you're simply tired of letting snakes and ground squirrels near your camp or cabin, SnakeShot bridges both demands in a single cartridge. It's the kind of practical, no-nonsense ammunition that appeals to hunters, preppers, and anyone who believes versatility beats specialization.
| Caliber | 10mm |
| Bullet Weight | 135 gr (JHP) |
| Shot Payload | 140 pellets, #9 shot |
| Total Load | 205 gr (bullet + shot) |
| Penetration (gel) | 10–12 inches |
| Expansion Diameter | .65 inches |
| Rounds per Box | 20 |
| Packaging | 20 rounds/box; 50 boxes/case |
Double Tap's SnakeShot is designed for both defensive use and varmint control. The hybrid bullet-and-shot design makes it effective against snakes, small game, and ground pests, while the 135gr hollow point core provides reliable expansion and stopping power for personal defense situations where controlled penetration matters—such as home defense, where over-penetration through walls or barriers is a concern.
No. The round penetrates 10–12 inches in ballistic gel, which is controlled and appropriate for defensive use without the risk of excessive pass-through that can endanger unintended targets or bystanders. This makes it suitable for scenarios where minimizing collateral damage is important.
Each box contains 20 rounds of loaded 10mm SnakeShot ammunition. Cases of 50 boxes are available for those who want to stock up on a consistent, reliable load.
SnakeShot handles both. The shot payload makes it practical for varmints and snakes, while the JHP component delivers the ballistic performance needed for defensive use. It's a versatile round for shooters who don't want to switch ammunition between applications.
