My question is I am using Federal brass that came with their Match .308 ammo. I started to get some ejector marks on some of my loads near maximum. Primers look fine, not cratered or leaking. Am I in the safe zone?
No, as per many official hand loading sources (manuals), you are slightly over.

And can I reuse the brass if it has these marks?
Yes.
My personal suggestion: Unless the group size produced by that load is truly outstanding, I would investigate (work-up), different loads; that one is too close to the edge to be safe under all conditions.
