Hello, Today I am looking for your help..again.
Please see attached pictures and a diagram.
I have a theory, but I do not misguide your thoughts.

Thanks, Bob.

The whole cylindrical part is the driving band. It's a lead coated shell. The Prussian 26 cm C/69 fits very well. Were they used in the Austro-Hungarian Empire as well?

Wall thickness at the thinnest part 63 mm - weight should be impressive.
