I'm getting back into reloading again and have a few questions.

Setup:
Rifle-10 fp .308
Lee collet die
Winchester brass
Federal brass
168 gr. Combined Tech Nosler's
Varget
4064
CCI LR NO.200

1) Is this cci primer safe to use in place of a federal 210M?

2) Will this primer work well with Varget and 4064?

3) The load data on the Hodgdon site doesn't state a primer to use so will this primer work good with their data or should I be looking for a different primer?

4) When load data says Sierra 168 gr. bthp is it safe to assume the 168 gr. Nosler bt could be substituted?

5) Should I start right at the minimum load specified, or lower?

Thanks a lot guys!
