reloading my 9mm 1939 Mauser luger with lead bulets

Do NOT load your rounds hot, as the Luger does not need/want hot loads. I do not load with that powder, so someone that does can offer more help.

I handload for many rifle and pistol calibers. I don't use any loads that "somebody told me about". Before loading anything I studied several manuals from different bullet and powder companies and never started with maximum loads. There are too many dangers with loads that are too hot, and also ones that are below minimum (detonation).
