Power of P-08 ammo in the 1920's

Sieger, do you have the specs on the 1920's version of 7.65mm ammo? I know it used a 93 grain FMJ bullet but what was the muzzle velocity in feet per second?

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.
