Yom Kippour War

Every wondered what a smooth bore cannon shot looked like?

I bet the majority of the  people think at during the Civil War the loader just tossed in a cannon ball.  Not really as the most of the shot was a shell.   The smooth bore was liked for is quick loading.  The exploding shell made up for it lack of accuracy.   Below is an original confederate shell.


Nice view of the Bormann fuze
