Martin’s Shot

Martin’s shot was a variation of hot shot. It consisted of a cast iron spherical shell lined with insulating materials, probably asbestos, and it was filled with molten iron. When the Martin’s shell contacted its target, the shell would break up and the molten iron inside would cling to the target thus setting any combustible materials aflame.
