    When the cartridge is fired the gas pressure causes the cartridge case to expand, contacting the chamber walls.

    A series of individual 1/1,000,000-second exposures showing shotgun firing shots and wadding separation. In shotgun shells, the wadding is actually a semi-flexible cup-shaped sabot designed to hold numerous much smaller-diameter sub-projectiles (i.e. shots), and is launched out together as one payload-carrying projectile.
