Hi, what case would go with this?

I have a case which I believe is for the Austrian Boehler, the 47x195R shown below. However, I have also read of other case measurements for this gun so there may have been more than one "47mm Boehler"; the gun was used by several different armies, so perhaps they used different ammo? Anyone know?

Nice one, as usual! Does your case measure 195mm?

Hi Tony, the length of the shellcase for the APHE 1s 227 mm, the HE has a shellcase of 195mm long.
