Would it be at all possible to use iron bullets in a Victorian Era gun?

I’m writing an urban fantasy short story set in Victorian England involving faries, and I need to kill one of them. Common lore states that iron is a weakness of fey, and I was wondering the effectiveness of an iron bullet. I read that lead was used for bullets because it didn’t damage the barrel of the gun as much as iron, but would it be possible to shoot an iron bullet from a Victorian era gun (of any sort)? Even if your gun was useless afterwards, would it be possible to do it the one time?
