The Judge vs. The Snakeslayer?
anyone out there have either?
Case you don't know, the judge is a 5 shot .410 revovler
the snakeslayer is a 2 shot O/U derringer
Both can fire .410 or 45 colt, mostly used for snakes.
I kinda like the snakeslayer, seems like it would be smaller to carry.
The judge has 3" barrel, whereas the slayer I think might have an inch after that 3" .410 shell.
I assume 2 shots for a snake would be enough but what if you miss once? Then I'm wondering about carrying the .45 LC for protection, but is that like a cap gun for griz protection during a bowhunt? better than nothing I assume. Also what about for mtn. lion? wolves? etc...?
Wondering about the velocity differences between the 2 with the .45 colt? The judge would have close to 6" minus the .45 LC shell length...and the slayer would have im guessing 4" minus the colt length again...?
Any insight would help. Thanks.
