Can someone please explain the bullet size or cast bullet size mold diameter I should be looking for?

Lets just stick to 9mm for this one. Most of my "factory" bullets for reloading 9mm are .355, the casting dies at Lee for 9mm are .356
I am on MP Molds now and I see they dont make a .356 dia mold for HP bullets (I am specifically looking for a hollow point mold) it looks like the .358 dia is pretty popular? I do plan on sizing as well but would like to hear the opinions of the different diameters available?
