The German cases were made slightly shorter due to the design of the driving band.
The original Czech design used a copper jacketed projectile with the bands formed as part of the copper jacket. These were partially contained inside the case neck.
The German version used a projectile with an iron driving band similar to German 20mm, which was outside of the case neck.
