If they turn out to be unsuitable for the Luger, I'll give them to a friend for use in his Glock.

Hi:
I've found, what appears, to be your bullet, Lyman's 356637, in Lyman's latest Cast Bullet Handbook.
The "flat" of the front of the bullet looks too wide to me to be able to properly feed through a Luger's magazine. The Luger "likes" truncated cone bullets with narrow "flats".
You might want to try either the Lyman 120 gr. #356402 or RCBS' #9mm-124-CN, as these should work perfectly.
