anyone know the difference?
I am looking for a set of dies in my flavor( Hornady ) for the 6mm Remington , But all that I can find new are 6mm Remington BR ( bench rest I assume ) .Will it work?, also anyone know if other brands of die will thread into my die bushings. Any help will be appreciated...............LOUD

Two totally different cartridges.
One short & fat:  The other sleek and svelt:  I'd consider getting a bushing conversion set and expanding your options http://www.midwayusa.com/product/858...on-bushing-kit |

Or maybe an old set of .244 Remington. Same size just different label as the original barrel twist on the .244 didn't like longer bullets, hence the re-branded 6mm.

The 6mm BR might be short and fat, but it is the more accurate of the two.....
 , but no you cannot, as mentioned, use it for the 6mm Remington

To the OP---I have to even suggest it, but keep a look on Fleabay. The amount of dies listed there right now is 10X the amount even a couple months ago. OR, just go with a set from RCBS, or another. My RCBS 6mm Rem dies are going on 20 years old and I couldn't even guess how many rounds through them. Still brand-new by performance standards. |
