I've had a couple of saddle scabbards made and I thought real sheepskin would be great for a lining. I was quickly talked into the artificial type as being less likely to hold moisture.

Now, before I go I stuff a rag soaked in wd-40 down inside to put some oil on the lining and never have to worry about rust.

The two Elephant skin cases I have have some sort of leather lining that is very smooth and the rifle slips in and out quite easily. I don't think they would be much good for a wet hunt though.
