German projectiles

Hi,
in a German eyewitness account of the battle of Bautzen the writer frequently mentions being shot at with "paskugeln".
Can anybody tell me what that is? I think it might be grapeshot, but I'm not entirely sure.
Here's a quote: "Wir mussten weichen, und viele blieben durch Gewhrkugeln, Kartätschen und Paskugeln."
