Hornady Match Grade Bushing/.338
The Hornady Match Grade Bushing in .338 is a precision neck-sizing component designed for reloaders who demand consistency and control over case preparation. These interchangeable bushings work with Hornady's Match Grade dies to let you dial in exactly the bullet tension you want, without the guesswork or risk of overworking your brass. If you're serious about handloading for accuracy—whether you're preparing rounds for competition, long-range hunting, or precision rifle work—these bushings give you the fine-tuning that factory dies simply can't match.
The .338 bushing is self-centering, meaning it automatically positions your case neck in the die bore for uniform sizing every time. Since bushings are available in .002-inch increments, you can fine-tune your neck tension in small, deliberate steps to find the sweet spot for your rifle and bullet combination. This approach dramatically reduces the chance of over-sizing case necks, which extends brass life and keeps your loads more consistent shot to shot.
Built to the same exacting standards as Hornady's Custom Grade dies, the Match Grade bushing incorporates a self-centering decap spindle with an o-ring spindle tensioner and the proven elliptical expander ball with headed decap pin. The result is a hardened, precision-finished component that handles thousands of reloading cycles without losing its edge. Use the bushing in either a Full Length die (which sizes body, bumps shoulder, and neck sizes with your selected bushing) or a Neck die (neck sizing and shoulder bumping only, no body sizing) for maximum flexibility in your reloading routine.
