Well you picked a honey to start with! Lee dies will work fine. You'll need to trim well and get something to remove the military primer crimp on fired brass. I use a pilot bit on a drill press. Don't use Rem 6.5 primers, use 7.5 or CCI.

The pacesetter die set you want for .223 is the item number: 38-888-616-02

answer 7
This is great for all size casings from .22 to .50 cal. It will work just fine on .223, 5.62, or 7.62 casings.

You can use just 2 of the available stages for these dies or can add the additional collet crimp die that lee makes. I use it in the 308 caliber.

In pistol format, if available, get the Lee Carbide 4 die set which includes expander/powder charger and the factory crimp.

For rifle, I would suggest the Lee Deluxe Rifle 3 die set which includes sizing for full and neck. Just add a few bucks to get the rifle die Powder Charger and a Factory Crimp in addition to run on your 4 stage setup.

Those are my kits, hope this helps

Lee does have dies for 6mm (assume you mean 6mm Rem). 243 is not the same and will not work correctly.
