Just so you know, it's almost always OK to substitute bullets of the same weight and construction type. this is because a .308 caliber bullet that us a certain construction pretty well has to be very similar to other bullets of that weight and construction.

For example, if load data lists "150gr JHP", you will be safe starting with the listed minimum load using any given 150gr JHP.

Where you have to be careful is if you find data for a bullet of the same weight but different construction, such as the all copper Barnes TSX line versus "normal" lead core, copper jacket bullets.
