short shot is a word defined for major defect, it is actually occur when molten material does not fully occupy the cavities in a mold. Due to which mold remained incomplete after cooling. short shot may be because of restriction in the flow of molten material through the cavities and other main cause is present of large percentage of entrapped air.
