it used to be lead, but most are steel now for environmental reasons. lead is a poison: a toxic heavy metal.
Iron pellets are not a compound or an element on their own. They are a form of iron that consists of multiple iron atoms bonded together. Iron itself is an element, but when it is in the form of pellets, it is a physical mixture of iron atoms.
This element is used for that process, and for the preparation of those compounds.
Element: He Helium.
No, there are other methods. One sometimes called the "shotgun" method takes microscopic tungsten pellets, coats them with the genetic material to be inserted, places them in a microscopic "gun", places the gun aimed at the organ to be treated and fires it with a pulse of air or water. A tiny fraction of the tungsten pellets enter cells, a fraction of those enter the nucleus, and in a fraction of those nuclei the material incorporates somewhere randomly into one or more chromosomes.
Radioactive pellets are small, sealed capsules containing radioactive material. They are often used in medical treatments for conditions like cancer, where the radioactive material can be targeted to specific areas of the body to kill cancer cells. Proper handling and disposal of radioactive pellets is essential to protect the health and safety of individuals and the environment.
Pellets or slugs. shotguns usually shoot shot or pellets, but you can shoot slugs. in Indiana we use a shotgun to hunt deer and use shotgun slugs, better to use a barrel with no choke in it. cylinder bore preferred.

Tubes that constrict the column of shotgun pellets as they exit the barrel
Note: The shotgun does not have "bullets" it has shells which are the casings and generally pellets inside the casing (of different gauge's); the number of pellets vary according to the gauge or size of the pellet. The smaller the pellet, the more there are of them.
metal, very similar to aluminum. used for cladding reactor fuel pellets in water reactors.
air soft pellets
@170 pellets per oz. Good for phesant.
A shotgun wound is a type of injury caused by a shotgun firing ammunition at close range. The high impact and spread of pellets can cause severe damage to tissues, bones, and organs. Treatment typically involves surgery to remove any bullets or pellets and repair the affected areas.
