CASE-SHOT

Examples of case shot

'Caseshot' is a projectile used in ordnance for fighting at close quarters. It consists of a thin metal case containing a large number of bullets or other small projectiles, such as musketballs, stones, or old pieces of iron. Case-shot was formerly called canister, though the term now used occurs as early as 1625.
