Game across a ton of 6.5 creedmoor brass at the range
can I use it in my 243 without any problems..Will regular 243
dies neck it to 243?
 
No, different shoulder dimensions and case length. You can make 243 brass work in 6.5 Creedmoor (will require trimming length) but not the other way around to my knowledge
 
Best thing would be to sort it and sell it or hold onto it in case you eventually rebarrel to a 6 or 6.5 Creedmoor.
