Any ideas on this – it’s plain brass, 61cm long; 47.7mm dia.,hollow and sealed at each end, with one end having a possible ‘plug’ with twoholes for a ‘key’ to unscrew. Markingson the plug, which looks like it would unscrew:- see picture. Thanks, Depotman.

Completely unsure : a brass container for bulk explosive and a hole to introduce a detonator ?
