Here's scans from two Speer reloading handbooks; the first is the 1987, the second is the 1979. I like the older manuals because the newer ones do not have 30 Mauser, 30 Luger, or 8mm Nambu at all...

Edit: Third pic is a note from the 1991 Hornady Reloading Manual on the powders they list...

Well, Speer and Hornady certainly have it right, but then again, they don't produce the powder.
