Which does a shotgun shell have that a cartridge does not?
A shotgun shell contains a plastic or paper hull that houses multiple pellets or shot, rather than a single bullet.

In contrast, a cartridge typically contains a single bullet, casing, primer, and gunpowder, designed for use in rifles or handguns.
How many pellets or bbs are in a 410 3 inch shell for each shot size?
A .410 3-inch shell typically contains around 1/4 ounce of shot, which translates to approximately 135 pellets of #6 shot, 90 pellets of #7.5 shot, and 70 pellets of #8 shot. The exact number can vary slightly based on the brand and specific load. For larger shot sizes, such as #4, there are fewer pellets due to their larger diameter.
Will a shot bullet land at the same time dropped bullet?
No, the shot bullet will land after the dropped bullet. This is because the shot bullet has an initial horizontal velocity in addition to the vertical acceleration due to gravity, while the dropped bullet only has the vertical acceleration due to gravity.
What function has a bullet wad?
A bullet wad serves as a spacer and seal in firearm ammunition, specifically in shotgun shells. Its primary functions include keeping the shot or pellets contained, preventing them from shifting during handling, and creating a gas seal that maximizes pressure when the shell is fired. This helps improve accuracy and consistency in shot spread. Additionally, wads can protect the shot from deformation and reduce barrel fouling.
Why does my shotgun shot a bullet every other time?
