This recently came into my possession. Nice 2pdr from VSM

Case is dated 5/16
Primer is dated 10/15
Fuze is dated 5/16. Marked VSM 332 121
Nice line of inspection marks on the projectile.
Primer has been deactivated from the inner side.

Does anybody have a drawing of this cartridge? Preferably showing the powdercharge in the shellcase, and the gun powder filling in the projectile?
Thanks in advance,
Regards, DJH
