Did you compare it to a 20x110 HS round and check for the "exposed projectile length" - just to compare?

yes its shorter than wartime hispano but slightly longer than modern hispano
 
Looks more like the American Hispano type, Projectile M99 (TP) or the M58(HEI).
Ref; Ammunition for aircraft guns TM9-1901-1.

cheers
Bob
