Are you asking about the 7.5 French chambering or the 7.62 NATO chambering?

I can recommend that you use a hard primer as the design of the firing pin and length can cause i to fire when letting bolt loose to chamber, this is my experience anyway

That's a problem with some for sure, there's plenty of info on the web to shorten the firing pin or simply replace it with a titanium firing pin.
