Only the Feldhaubitzgranate with A.Z.23 v. (0.15) and the 10cm Gr. 39 rot HL/A (shaped charge).

The case was separately loaded of course.
 
According to D 420/306 (1942) 4 types of projectiles were manufactured for the 10,5 cm Geb H 40:
- FH Gr (Al)
- FH Gr (Buntrauch)
- 10 cm Pzgr
- 10 cm Gr 39 rot Hl

I have found these:
Feldhaubitzgranate (Aluschliff)
Feldhaubitzgranate Buntrauch
10 cm Granate 39 rot Hohlladung A
10 cm Granate 39 rot Hohlladung B
10cm Weiß-Rot Geschoß
10 cm Panzergranate
Feldhaubitzgranate Brand
Feldhaubitzgranate Blind
10 cm Granate 39 rot Blind
Exerzier Feldhaubitzgranate (Aluschliff)

For example the Feldhaubitzgranate Brand is mentioned in Artilleristische Mitteilungen Nr. 16 from 1.6.1944 to be used for observed fire only.
