Hornady Match Grade Bushing .335"
The Hornady Match Grade Bushing .335" is a precision neck sizing bushing designed for reloaders who use Hornady's Match Grade die system. This interchangeable bushing lets you dial in exactly how tight your case necks grip the bullet—a level of control that separates careful handloaders from those who accept factory tolerances. By allowing you to choose your own neck tension rather than accepting a one-size-fits-all approach, you avoid the common mistake of over-sizing brass and prematurely work-hardening it.
The .335" bushing is one in Hornady's lineup of self-centering bushings, available in .002 inch increments so you can fine-tune your setup. Use it with either the Match Grade Full Length Die (which sizes body, bumps shoulder, and necks in one stroke) or the Match Grade Neck Die (neck-only sizing with shoulder bump). Both die versions are built around Hornady's proven self-centering decap spindle, o-ring spindle tensioner, and the elliptical expander ball with headed decap pin—the same robust components found in their Custom Grade line. The result is consistent, repeatable case preparation that extends brass life and tightens your reloading tolerances.
If you're already running a Match Grade die system or considering moving to one, extra bushings in different sizes let you optimize loads for different powders, bullets, or shooting conditions without buying new dies. The build quality and finish reflect Hornady's reputation for precision reloading equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What dies work with the .335" Hornady Match Grade Bushing?
This bushing is designed for Hornady Match Grade die sets—both the Full Length Die and Neck Die versions. It's self-centering and interchangeable within that system.
Why would I need multiple bushings in different sizes?
Different bushings let you adjust neck tension for different bullets, powders, or shooting conditions without replacing entire die sets. Since bushings are available in .002" increments, you can dial in the exact fit you want.
Does using the right bushing size extend my brass life?
Yes. By allowing you to choose appropriate neck tension and avoid over-sizing, you reduce work-hardening of the brass and get more reloads per case.
