We had fun in that granary. If is an old Great Northern refrigerator car my dad bought for a granary in the 1940s. Lots of old stuff stored in it now, lumber, old tires, etc. We would shoot for about 10 minutes, then close the door and wait. Open it and the fun began again. How far did you find the shotshells to be effective on rats?
Most of the shots were from PBR to 12 feet. I made one shot which was close to 30 ft which I felt was a bit of luck. I think 10 to 12 feet was a sensible max for that revolver. The gun I was using a snub nose revolver made by New England Firearms if I remember correctly. I don't have it anymore.
Something worth mentioning, after the first night I went back the next night with ear muffs and safety glasses. I had a couple of pellets ricochet and hit me in the face.
