Your post leaves out to much information to give you the answer you want.

Yes the C. cerastes is a small snake and the venom yield is much less than a C. adamanteus. This does not limit the danger.

You mentioned that someone said it was no worse than a rear fanged bite. Well there are rear fanged venomous snakes that will kill you quicker and in worse ways than many front fanged venomous snakes.

ANY rattlesnake bite can be very serious and can end with your death. At very least you will sure regret the bite
