What is a "shell"?

A shell is a type of loaded case used in guns and firearms. It consists of a casing that holds gunpowder and a projectile, such as a bullet or small pellets. When fired, the gunpowder burns, forcing the projectile out of the barrel at high speed. Shells come in different sizes and types, depending on the firearm and intended use, including hunting, sport shooting, and military applications.
