140 grain Spitzer Boat Tail and loaded to a velocity of 2700fps in a 24 in barrel or close to 2900fps in a 29 in barrel.

49.0gr of W760 or H414 will give you the same velocity at around 40,000CUP. It is a very accurate load in just about any 7x57 I've used it in.

Lyman also lists 45.0gr of IMR4320 for this bullet and used a model 95 Mauser for a test bed and list it as max but safe.

Your Mod 1935, has a Mauser 98 style receiver and should be a bit more capable of handling higher pressures safely. Not that there is anything wrong with the 95, just doesn't handle escaping gas or shrapnel as well in case of a blow out.
