9x19s like large lead bullets (generally 0.357-0.358"). SWCs work in all my P-08s (Lugers) and P-38s (Walthers) along with S&W, Browning, EAA, and CZ.

Hi,
A special caution on using bullets with diameters greater than .356 inches in a Luger's (Pistole Parabellum's) chamber; as often they will not let the Luger go into full battery, causing a very dangerous situation, as a Luger can fire out of battery.
.358 diameter bullets will not chamber in my Lugers at all, when loaded out to proper O.A.L..
Some brands of SWC will chamber in a Luger, some will not. It seem to depend upon the width of the "cutting edge" part of the bullet. The ones that will not chamber, jump out of the pistol into mid-air!!!
Again, be very careful regarding the diameter of the bullets you load for a Luger pistol.
