Forster Products 0.283'' Neck Bushing

The Forster Products 0.283'' neck bushing is a precision reloading component designed for shooters who demand tight neck sizing control. This bushing works exclusively with Forster Precision Plus bushing bump dies, making it the right choice if you're already running Forster equipment or planning to build a Forster-based reloading setup. Neck bushings let you fine-tune case neck diameter to match your specific bullet, which means more consistent bullet seating and better accuracy potential—something every handloader chasing tight groups understands.

Forster manufactures these bushings in 0.001-inch increments, so you can dial in your neck sizing with surgical precision. The 0.283'' size covers the smaller end of Forster's bushing range (which spans .281 to .343''), making it suited for cartridges requiring a tighter neck diameter. All Forster bushings receive cryogenic treatment, a process that hardens the steel and eliminates microscopic stress to deliver a smoother surface finish and longer working life. That means less wear on your equipment over thousands of rounds.

If neck sizing consistency matters to your reloading process—and it should—this bushing lets you reduce runout and improve round-to-round performance. It's a straightforward, purpose-built tool that rewards attention to detail.
