Unknown Swedish case 57 mm

[Hoeksel]

Hello, I am offered this case. It is Swedish, and I think it is a 57 mm case. Dimensions are ~ 57x385R80....I suspect 57x395R? for the 57 mm M43 or M49 Bofors. Does anybody recognize this case? What is the date of manufacture (could be 1945 or 1946).

Made in 1945 and reloaded in 1946.

What gun was this ammo for?

For me the case is new, I could not tell you. I acquired two 57 mm cases, this one and another Swedish WW2 case for the 6 pounder Nordenfelt gun.
