If you mean "Magener" I don't think this is a projectile for this gun.
Here is a magener trench mortar with it's trench bomb

[doctor]

Yes i know the cylindrical bomb on your picture but i can say that the last type found in france is setting with lanz fuze and the body is not cylindrical but like a big egg with cilindrical part (15 cm
)

Thank you for the pictures Doctor
This is the 15 cm Sprengmine (Kgelformig)
Do you know what was the trench mortar used for this one?

[doctor]

The mortar name is 15 cm PreBluftminenwerfer of the family PreBgasminenwerfer

But 145mm is not 150mm , and it's a great difference .

The diameter on the middle rim is about 158 mm

yes this is correct except for the spelling. PreBluftminenwerfer where B is actually a double ss in old german, so it is a pressluftminenwerfer
