I have a 30 Luger Browning Hi Power and have found the Hornady 90 grain XTP(it's a JHP in ,309 diameter) loads well. Also have some 93 grain LRN bullets that have some good loadings. I wanted to ocmpare the original ammo specs to these loads. Thanks.

Hi:
From the original German sources I find the following for the 7.65mm:
DWM Production (Pre WWI)
Vel. at 33 feet, 1,150 fps (350 m.)
Mauser Produced Pistols (Pre WWII)
Vel. (unlisted test distance) 1,188 fps (361 m)
I hope this info helps!!
