I've been trying to find this and none of the books I own seem to tell.

What were the original German P.08 cartridge loadings in WWI and WWII?

That is:

Bullet weight?
Bullet shape?
Muzzle Velocity?

This would be for the standard 4-inch models (in case there were special loads for the lang barreled Lugers).

I'm trying to match modern ammo with what my Luger originally would have shot.

Thanks!
