Description

The CCI 3740 Pest Control Shotshell delivers effective close-range pest elimination in a standard 40 S&W cartridge case. This specialized ammunition transforms any 40 caliber handgun into a versatile pest control tool without requiring additional equipment or modifications.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional jacketed bullets that can over-penetrate and create safety hazards, these shotshells contain multiple #9 shot pellets that spread upon firing. The 88-grain payload provides sufficient energy for small pest elimination while minimizing ricochet risk on hard surfaces. Standard 40 S&W chambering ensures compatibility with existing firearms without modification.

These shotshells excel in barn environments, warehouses, and rural properties where pest control requires precision without structural damage concerns.
