Are you asking about 30-06 ammo or .308 ammo? I'm only asking for clarity even though by your charge weight it looks like you are asking about .308 Win ammo. (and the mention of the M14)

The 30-06 and 308 are both 7.62mm, 7.62x63mm and 7.62x51mm.

As for IMR 8208 being safe to use in either ammo, it seems to be near the middle of the recommended burn rate range so I see no reason not to use it.
