Seems to me that you both are of differing opinions of go, no-go with the load data.
Judgedelta, are you asking if I am just now shooting semi's all together? I wouldn't dare say I'm an expert, but I do okay. I've shot with semi's for years. They're not by any means new to me.

Thank you, Walkalong.
Could you take a few minutes and explain the notes in the second picture? I'm guessing the 106 and 107 numbers are charge weights? That is some seriously high weights. At least, weights that I myself am not familiar with. Very interesting tho. Thank you, sir.

Perfect. That's exactly what I was thinking. I very much appreciate the info, Big7. Thank you.
Edit:
I have bags and bags full or brass that I've case separated. I read in many different places where brass from manufacturer to manufacturer will vary in a myriad of variables. I am trying to eek...
Blue68f100, I have a question on your point:
"Separate all the brass by volume."
What exactly do you mean by "volume". Can you define this for me? Is "volume" a reloading term that I am unfamiliar with meaning "manufacturer" (ie: varying types and manufacturers cases will have different...
Brass tacks....
You'll want to collect as much of the same kind and manufacturer of brass as possible. Then get (1) neck bushing for that specific neck (measure the neck of a loaded bullet and subtract 0.001" and get that bushing) Bushings are not cheap. They are about $20 w/shipping.
Or you...
You'll want to get an annealer, regardless. Weather it's an auto-annealer, or a simple blow torch. I imagine you're posing this question as a 'help a starter 308 reloader' because your main reason is to save money, correct? Money saving reloaders of the 308 are going to want to reload the case...
Ill add the following.
An annealer, a wide variety of bullet components, brass if you don't have some, something to clean your brass, #34 primers if you're loading for an automatic rifle, case prep center or handheld tools to do the same, powder dispenser. There's lots you can get. I spent well...
Question,
I'm looking on Hodgon's website for load data, and notice that the data they have is for a specific barrel length.
http://www.hodgdonreloading.com/data/rifle
Specifically:
(Case: Winchester Twist: 1:12" Primer: Federal 210M, Large Rifle Match Barrel Length: 24" Trim Length...
If you load for the M110, I'd like to hear from you. I'm just now starting to load for it myself. Just did some 168gr loads:
CCI #34.
41gr of Varget. (although I did load some at 35.5, 36.5, 38.5, and 40)
Trimmed and FL resized.
Outback ADI 308 Win brass.
Cleaned primer pockets really...
