Unknown Swedish 75x214R90 1930

I have this case, and without checking I have assumed for a long time it was a 75x211R89.5 like the Dutch (Raufoss made) and the Turkish case I have. They are for the Bofors 7,5 cm L/20 mountain gun, and I know a Swedish and a Japanese case exists. But I noted only today this case is actually a bit longer. It is a 75x214R90 case, and it matches the 7,5 cm L/22 M36 cases I have (Bulgarian made and German made for Bulgaria). But I know this gun only as M1936 and my Swedish case is dated 1930.

Anybody has a clue?
