Howdy, folks. I'm thinking about getting a revolver to carry when I'm out in the country when I'm in ND during the warm months. I haven't really decided on what I want but it needs to be a revolver (single or double action), it needs to take abuse without me cringing at a little scratch, it needs to shoot inexpensive ammo (I'm not a reloader), and the pistol can't break the bank. I'm not too worried about 2-legged predators and I probably won't have to worry about the 4-legged type too much. I'm more concerned about the Prairie Rattlers and Bull Snakes. The reason I would like a revolver is because I can carry it with shotshell rounds and keep some real ones in my pocket. The first 2 calibers that come to mind are .22lr (maybe with a .22 magnum cylinder) or a .357 magnum so I can also shoot .38 special. I'm not currently in the market for one right now, but come a few months my mind might change.
**ETA** Would .22LR or Magnum shotshells work on snakes or just tick them off?
