Default cartridge OK to use?

I have a match 1916 commercial 30 Luger. My neighbor just picked up two fifty-round boxes of reloads for me ($40) but there are two kinds there.

Over half are the usual copper fmj but there are some with lead projectiles. These are about two mm longer than the fmj rounds and I am wondering if they will work in my pistol.

They seem to fit OK in the magazine but they are primed and I am not thrilled about manually cycling some through the gun.

Nor do I have any idea how much powder is in the cartridge.

I don't have plans to shoot my pistol but I would like to know any thoughts folks might have. Thanks.
