help from european posters--not on topic

i know there are a lot of european posters here. i need to know the internal volume of an unfired rottweil club 16 ga. hull of either 65 or 67.5 mm in length. am trying to duplicate some cip data i've been given on loading brenneke slugs for my drilling. the rifle barrel is 8x57jr so this part is on topic. any specific help would be appreciated very much. thanks--cb

Hi
I donï¿½t actually have any club hulls in 16 ga.
But I have Rottwiel Tiger, Wadmansheil and brenneke.
Would the wolume of any of those 16 ga hulls be what you are after?

perhaps. i need the volume of a rottweil club hull. as i have never seen a rottweil tiger nor a rottweil club hull, they may be the same.
