Neck sizing the 6mm Creedmoor with a 6br die

Not sure if this will work or not, but looking for some imput.
I like the Redding "S" die for neck sizing my 6BR. I just got this 6mm Creedmoor, and was thinking if I would just change the bushing to the appropriate size, that I would be able to use the 6BR die to neck size my 6 creed.
Whats your thoughts??
Greatly appreciated!!
 
Are the case shoulder angles and diameters the same? If no, the 6BR Redding sleeve may not properly engage the 6 Creedmoor case. There’s one easy way to find out!
 
The chamber reamer print shows that the 6br measures .461 at the junction of the body and shoulder.
For the 6 Creed, that same measurement is at .462. You may get a little squeeze there but may not be enough to hurt.
Try one and see. I don't think you can ruin anything there if you are careful.
