I'm thinking it's 77mm German WWI. How about a photo of the headstamp?
 
Yeah Andy, 77mm German WWI. There are a number of posts here on the rounds, etc.

Click in advanced search on the top right.
toggle "posts" in the "search in" section, put "77mm" in keywords box in the "search for", and toggle "any date" in the "Additional options" find posts, and you can do some reading about the rounds and cases. Look in the ones that refer to WWI German, etc.
