birdshots
Small hunting projectiles
Birdshots is the plural of birdshot, the small lead or steel pellets loaded into shotgun shells for hunting birds and other small game.
The pellets scatter on firing, increasing the chance of hitting a fast-moving target.
Birdshot can also refer to individual pellets or multiple types of ammunition: The store stocks several birdshots in different gauges.
