Um, I'm no expert here but, wouldn't a higher caliber also just turn the
bird into a pile of feathers and stuff?

The shot in Whittington will probably become "encapsulated" in scar tissue,
so probably won't cause a lead poisoning issue per se, although in the "Old
West," there were many deaths from gunshot wounds that were attributed to
"lead poisoning." ;-{)}
Since the doc's are leaving some of the shot in, it's probably deep enough
into the tissue that it'd cause more damage to remove it than to leave it
there.
Shotguns use the pellets (or shot) because it disperses in a wider area,
making it easier to bring down a bird, or skeet disk, as it flies.=20
