Handgun Shotshells on large snakes
I once read that if you want to test/see the results from your current critter shot load, shoot a potato at the distance you plan on plugging the critter.
Looking at patterns I think one wants #9 shot for max size and #12 for pattern density.
Are you in an area of new construction or has the area always been "Snakey"?
What kind are ya dealing with?
