I have read the posts on this type of 105. No direct matches on the lettering on the one I have. It is engraved on the headcase,
"105MM TK C4 CA 099B22-01", and in ink, " TP /FSDS -T C71". The outside side of case is marked in ink " CA -99F13-02".
All info appreciated.

Thats awesome! Its a Canadian 105mm L7 casing for a Target Practice Fin Stabalized Discard Sabot round. I have one but for a TPDS projectile. Would have been used on the Leopard 1 I would assume.

Would I be " semi" correct if I stuck a M393A2 HEP-T projectile in this casing? Back in one of the posts here mentioned the 105mm L7 casing could also be loaded with an M393?
 
Im not completely sure, but I do know there is Canadian SH/P-T rounds for the Canadian L7 gun, (Squash Head Practice Tracer) which looks to be fairly similar? Like I said not 100% sure. Im not even sure of what type of TPFSDS rounds Canada used for the 105mm.
