Incorrect. Cartridges consist of a case, a primer, powder, and a bullet. People who call them "shells" are doing so incorrectly, likely by habit. Common mistake. Shotguns also don't have "bullets". They have shot, buck, slugs or a combination thereof. Shotgun shells consist of a shell, powder, wadding/sabot, and shot or slug.
