Hi Biker,
The drawings came from "Naval Gun" by Ian Hoggs and John Batchelor ISBN 0 7137 0905 7 published 1978.

Charge type MD45, Charge weight (lbs) 428, Projectile weight (lbs) 1920, Muzzle velocity (fps) 2450, Muzzle energy (foot-tons) 79914, Max range (yards/degrees) 23734/20deg 29000/30deg.
The info on the gun is from Ship Shape "Battlecruisers" by John Roberts, it has a few photos of Hood and some diagrams illustrating her armour protection etc, but no real modling info. Although there is a really good free plan which could be used to model the Queen Mary. But from the info above you have the length, you should be able to exract the necessary info for the width.
Can see why she came off worst with the Bismark engagment, even the Prinze Eugen out ranged her by about 3000yds, she was trying to take on two ships at once!!!
