no not a big deal, federal will work fine
As long as you begin at the recommended start load and watch for pressure signs as you increase, it should be fine. The only issue I've had is that some federal loads use a crimp on the primer. No issue resizing and depriming but when I went to seat new primers about 1/3 wouldn't seat. This was with 223 Rem not sure about 303 Brit... The crimp looks like a circle around the primer.
