Default Estes Hunter's Choice Help

I scored a Hunter's Choice Launch Set cheaply on Ebay as is was incomplete and I really just wanted the pad and controller for a customer.

Well, incomplete turns out to be an understatement. There should be two EX2 rockets, the Magnum Load and the Short Round. All I have of the Short Round is a pre-coloured tube, but the Magnum load is a little more complete. I have the fin can, transition, nose cone, decal and bottom BT55 body tube. No rings, clip, MMT tube, chute or lugs.

Does anyone have one of these built so they can give me the length of the upper BT50 body tube? It looks like an easy 'build it in ten minutes and park it in a tree' kit. I need more of those. I might even throw a Qualman baffle in it.

Thanks in advance.

FWIW this link lists the total length as 18.5":

Then it's a process of elimination by subtracting the lengths of the other components.
Hopefully someone has an actual model they can measure.
Good luck.
