i normally go for the very tiniest bit loose than too tight if i have to choose one. i mount the drive side crank and check for play at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock. with old BBs for a variety of reasons you'll sometimes feel no play all the way around the cranks rotation except in one or two spots. you might also try new grade 25 loose ball bearings and check your cups and races...
