Harry is not instantly killed by Voldermort's Avada Kedavra curse as Voldermorts final Horcrux that he made accidentally( When his powers were sapped, a seventh part of his sole attached itself to the only living thing in the room:Harry) was killed instead, so it was gone from Harry's body. This left his sole completely his own.

In the fictional magical world, the equivalent of shooting would be to use the magic wand. He might have used the Avada Kedavra curse - the killing curse. But there was another problem, namely, that the horcruxes kept Lord Voldemort alive.
