Having read various posts on these fuzes,none of them have a burn time of 165 second & 130 second,i have two 76.2 x 385mm shrapnel rounds,both identical but for the fuzes.

Can anyone supply further information on the fuzes,cheers

Hello,

The first one (grad. 130) looks like a time and percussion fuze 22-sec. series.
Sorry, I've never seen the second one (grad.165)

Regards

The unknown fuze may be a Soviet Model OM-82, or a variation. See attached photos.

Ok, I understand, I missed it. So I have already seen this fuze. I tried to remember an artillery fuze.
I think there's a mistake in the US designation, it's a time fuze and not a combination fuze.
