Hi,

Can any one please tell me what length of the 12 Pdr 4 cwt, 6 cwt, 8 cwt and 18 cwt cases are?

Thanks Jim
 
12 Pr cases

12Pr 4cwt = 76.2x216R x89rim // 12Pr 18cwt = 76.2x512R x??rim (i think that this is the same as the 14Pr case....any comments?) I would also like to know about the other 12Prs you mentioned...
 
According to Hogg "British Artillery Weapons and Ammunition 194-1918"

12Pr 6cwt BL Horse Artillery Gun has a bagged Charge

12 Pr 12cwt QF Coast Defence Gun Separate Loading Case Length is 15.4"

12 Pr 12cwt QF AntiAircraft Gun Separate Loading Case 15.4", Fixed Case 16"

I have no information on 4cwt, 8cwt and 18 cwt guns
 
12pr lengths

Think this has been gone into before suggest searching on 12pr and similar forms. 2pr
