Here pictures of the HE shell for the 7,65cm Skoda Model 28 -FK 404 (j)-
Does anybody have a drawing of the powdercharge in the shellcase so I can finish the cutaway model.
Thanks in advance,

Regards, DJH

Yes that case is the 75x174R M28 for export.....................would not have had a 7.65mm shell (would it?) M28 was 75mm calibre
 
I'm surprised that Germans use the same nomencalture for differents captured guns ; 404 is used for 15cm.

In my doc, only 7.65cm Fk 304 (j) :

Hi folks, thanks for the awnsers. I measured the projectile and over the bourrelet (forward machined straight area) it is 74,9mm. So not 76,5mm.
However, I still have no info about the powder charge in the shellcase.
