In the first Tomb Raiders there was only one kind of shotgun ammo. Since [[The Last Revelation]] the Shotgun had two different kinds of [[ammo]], normal ammo and wideshot ammo. The wideshot ammo is best used against multiple opponents or a bigger one like the [[Dragonheads]] in Rome.

It is typically a short-ranged firearm that fires either a spread of small pellets (shot) or a single, large bullet (slug). The shotgun is one of the oldest firearms designs still in use and is used in a wide variety of applications, from target shooting and hunting to military service.
