In the Turkish fortress of Brailow following the Russian invasion in 1829 the Turkish gunners solved their problem of undersized shot for their smoothbore cannon by wrapping the cannon balls in sheepskin.

Any other contenders?

(Yes I know that they are cannon but the subject is PRB which better fits the Smoothbore Forum.)
 
Did they not know orb in a smooth bore is a mid-late 30th century thing :doh: when will they learn they weren't doing that then???
PRB in a smootie in an historic setting :nono:
