75x118 case used in different mountain guns.
first observed (for me) was made by DWM in 1899 for the early Erhardt (later Rheinmetall) mountain guns.
Krupp mountain gun with this case was the 7,5cm Mod 1904, adpted by Peru, Turkey, Bulgaria (some source mentions as mod 1905), Switzerland as mod 1906. Other nations bought just few battery for test guns.
Guns differs from weight, range and elevation.

By the way, do you have a plan or at least actual case dimensions for 75x118mmR90? Because I know for sure we used it in Romania for the Krupp Mountain Gun Md.1914 (that's where my snippet of plan comes from. I didn't give the whole thing because the shell is an entirely different beast altogether and completely irrelevant for our discussion today), but I've never seen a case from one.
your pic show a bottle necked case,
this topic show the straight one
