Anybody load 7.5x54 French MAS? I loaded just a few some time ago. Looking to load 147s. Anybody got a favorite load?

Yeah, I have data from a few manuals. Just wondering if anyone had decent luck (or not so decent luck) with one powder or another to see which way I want to start looking.

Kinda like there’s data for 8mm Mauser using TAC, but it won’t cycle the auto loader I tried it in.

It was a 196gr FMJBT and it chrony’d about 23-2400 if memory serves me right. I can’t remember the specific charge. Rifle functioned fine with factory loads and another powder.
