I have good loads that work well for my Lee 356-102-1R in both 9mm and in 38 Sp. For the 9mm, I had to use PC, but for the 38s, tumble lube with BLL works fine.
My big batch that I just cast was actually for the "low recoil" 38s that make our light weight LCRx tolerable for my wife to shoot.
The PID is great. Being able to see your lead temp as you cast really helps. Do not worry about overheating this Lee mold by casting. You will start getting bullets that have defects (not filled out regions that have a very frosty surface) when your mold is too hot.
And keeping the sprue plate screw just tight enough to not back out is important.
