65mm St Chamond gun

I've recently acquired this case, 65mm x 190mm x 73mm rim, and it is not cut down. The only reference I can find for this is on the Passion and Compassion site which refers to a 65 mm Saint Chamond mountain gun Deport system. Does anyone have any information about the ammunition this gun used or is the case for something different?
