Unknown 2pr

I have attached a picture of a 2pr projectile which I am trying to identify. It is unmarked, has a tracer unit that unscrews and the nose will take a no 131 fuze or a nose plug found on the practice projectiles of WW2. The trouble is it is shorter than any of the regular 2pr projectiles that I know of and the nose threads make me want to think it would take a 131 fuze or possibly a 241 fuze if second war. I have put it against a mark V proj as it's nearest comparison. Any one recognise it?

Thanks
