Rick, I wouldn't call it a cut shell. Anyway, it's kind of interesting.

Been cutting shells for years especially when waterfowl hunting and nothing was happening. We would skip them across the water from our blind and compete to see whose cut shell could skip the furthest. Sort of like skipping stones when you were a kid.
We also would demolish flocks of blackbirds when hunting from a field pit. I'm sure Bill M. and Kevin M. have seen the huge swarms/flocks of the birds invade a cornfield. It was like a grenade going off. Of course this was in the good old days of lead shot, as we always had some 7.5's for cripples and the old AA hulls with the one piece wad worked the best. AHHH... the good old days.
