Default 9mm lead round nose 125g with 700x

Need some help got a lyman and they don't list 125g bullets for 9mm and i'm not sure how much 700x powder to use? i'm thinking around 2.5 or somewhere but i really don't wanna guess with this kind of thing. Any help from u guys please? Well i went to the hodgdon site and it says use 2.9g to start with and 3.4g max. Now the question is. I have a lee loadmaster 9mm kit with the pro auto-disk powder measure. The disks have numbers on the but i don't think thats grains are they? I guess i use the chart i got with it. It says 700x with 2.8g is VDM .37 what is VDM? There is no 2.9g measure so should i jump up to 3.0g VDM .40?
