A shotgun shell tracer includes a base wall, an obturator, and an edge wall extending from the base wall opposite to the obturator. A chamber support may be engaged to the base wall extending from the base wall within the internal space of the tracer. The shotgun shell tracer may additionally include a tracer insert which may encircle the chamber support. Discharge of a shotgun shell in some embodiments will exert pressure on projectiles which fuse the tracer insert to the base wall and the chamber support, and embed the projectiles into the tracer insert, establishing ballast for the shotgun shell tracer. The chamber support in one embodiment may be a modified spike. The ballast in one embodiment may be a washer replacing embedded projectiles. A conveyor may be used to transport tracer carriers during manufacture of a tracer.

1. A shotgun shell tracer comprising: at least one base wall, at least one obturator extending from said base wall, at least one edge wall extending from said at least one base wall opposite to said obturator, said at least one edge wall defining an internal space;at least one chamber support engaged to said at least one base wall wherein said at least one chamber support extends from said at least one base wall within said internal space; andat least one tracer insert constructed and arranged to surround said at least one chamber support within said internal space, wherein said shotgun shell tracer has a first pre-discharge state and a second post-discharge state, said at least one tracer insert not being integral to said at least one base wall and said at least one chamber support in said first pre-discharge state, said at least one tracer insert being integral to said at least one base wall and said at least one chamber support in said second post-discharge state. 2. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 1, wherein the at least one tracer insert is constructed and arranged such that discharge of a shotgun shell comprising said shotgun shell tracer exerts pressure which fuse said at least one tracer insert to said at least one base wall and said at least one chamber support, and embed said projectiles into said at least one tracer insert, establishing ballast for said shotgun shell tracer. 3. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 2, said at least one chamber support comprising a ledge and said at least one tracer insert comprising a lower edge, said lower edge being positioned proximate to said ledge. 4. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 2, said tracer insert comprising a lower edge and a bevel opposite to said lower edge. 5. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 4, wherein said bevel extends away from said at least one edge wall inwardly toward said interior space. 6. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 1, said at least one chamber support comprising ballast. 7. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 1, said at least one chamber support comprising at least one post. 8. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 7, said at least one post comprising ballast. 9. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 7, further comprising ballast said ballast being constructed and arranged for positioning between said post and said at least one edge wall. 10. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 9, said ballast comprising at least one arcuate segment. 11. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 2, said at least one edge wall comprising an exterior, said shotgun shell tracer further comprising at least one protective cup disposed about said exterior of said at least one edge wall. 12. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 11, said at least one protective cup being constructed and arranged to separate from said exterior of said at least one edge wall upon exit from a shotgun barrel following discharge of said shotgun shell tracer. 13. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 2, said at least one edge wall comprising an exterior, said shotgun shell tracer further comprising at least one protector disposed about said exterior of said at least one edge wall. 14. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 13, said at least one protector comprising film. 15. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 14, said at least one protector being constructed and arranged to separate from said exterior of said at least one edge wall upon exit from a shotgun barrel following discharge of said shotgun shell tracer. 16. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 1, said at least one chamber support comprising at least one divider section. 17. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 1, said at least one edge wall comprising at least one slit. 18. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 17, said at least one slit being constructed and arranged to form at least one petal. 19. The shotgun shell tracer according to claim 1, said at least one chamber support having a first height dimension and said at least one tracer insert having a second height dimension which is substantially equal to said first height dimension. 20. A shotgun shell tracer comprising: a. at least one base wall, at least one obturator extending from said base wall, at least one edge wall extending from said at least one base wall opposite to said at least one obturator, said at least one edge wall defining an internal space;b. at least one chamber support engaged to said at least one base wall wherein said at least one chamber support extends from said at least one base wall within said internal space, said at least one chamber support having a first height dimension; andc. at least one tracer insert constructed and arranged to surround said at least one chamber support within said internal space, said at least one tracer insert having a second height dimension which is substantially equal to said first height dimension, said at least one tracer insert not being integral to said at least one chamber support prior to discharge of a shotgun shell comprising said shotgun shell tracer wherein discharge of said shotgun shell comprising said shotgun shell tracer welds said at least one tracer insert to said at least one base wall and said at least one chamber support forming a unitary tracer component, wherein discharge of said shotgun shell embeds a plurality of projectiles into said tracer establishing ballast for said shotgun shell tracer.
