Hello,
1) I would like to know the case length and case mouth diameter of this 20Pr clearing case.

2) What is the earliest dated 20Pr case?

Thanks!
 
I have these two early dated 20Pr cases in my files. They may not be the earliest but thought I should list them. I hope this helps.

1. 20 Pr MK2 RL 1954 Lot 44
2. 20Pr Mk1 RL 1955 Lot 25

The info I have on this states the Clearing Mk 1 is a service case cut to 363mm. It doesn't specify the diameter at the point of cut. It is sealed with a leatherboard cup that is 38mm deep flush with case mouth.

Dave.
