Default 5.7 Johnson

I'm looking for any reloading data for the 5.7 Johnson using a 55 gr bullet

I just rebarreled my Marline model 62 30 carbine into a 5.7 Johnson and it is throated out deep enough to use 55 gr. I can find data for 50 gr bullets but not 55 so would appreciate any help.

Merry Christmas to all

Interesting choice of calibers. It was developed about 50 years ago to get some more versatility out of surplus M 1 carbines. Doesn't even rate a mention in my Cartridges of the World.
