Did I order the right stuff?

Brand spanking new to casting and I just put in my order still have to mail them the check so by the time they get it and get the stuff ready to ship have a little time to change things but think I got it right
I’m starting with the rounds I shoot the most of so went with the 6 cavity moulds
Lead is 95/2.5/2.5 and plan on water dropping
First one I want to cast for is 7.62x25 at approx. 1400fps
Barrels slugged at .301/.311 .302/.313 .301/.313 and .300/.312
LEE MOULD 311-93-1R SIX CAVITY (LEE90308) &
LEE LUBE & SIZE KIT .309 DIAMETER (LEE90038)
from what I read they have chambering problems above .309
also getting a mould for 9mm & 38 super should be under 1000 fps
barrels slugged at .348/.357(super) .349/.356 .348/.356 .349/.358 (old p-1)
LEE MOULD 356-120-TC SIX CAVITY (LEE90387)
LEE LUBE & SIZE KIT .357 DIAMETER (LEE90047)
I called lee there specks are from size to .003 over the other option would be to use 38 special bulletts
Going with the lee 4-20 bottom pour pot also remembered to get handles for the moulds
Thanks for all the help in my other thread about getting lead
