The Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.249 is a precision neck-sizing bushing designed for handloaders who need tight, consistent case neck control. If you're working with .249-inch case necks—whether you're preparing match-grade rifle ammo, optimizing precision loads, or fine-tuning case fit in a custom die setup—this hardened steel bushing delivers the controlled sizing that separates mediocre loads from repeatable ones. Redding's 73-style bushings are the industry standard for inline neck sizing, offering the wear resistance and accuracy you need across hundreds of reloading cycles.
Heat-treated to Rc 60–62 hardness, the sizing surface is hand-polished to minimize the friction and effort required during the sizing stroke. That's not just comfort at the press—it's consistency. Less drag means more uniform pressure applied to each case neck, which translates to tighter neck tension and more predictable velocity spreads. Whether you're loading for a bolt-action rifle, a precision semi-auto, or a custom wildcat, a properly sized neck is foundational to accuracy.
Redding manufactures bushings in .001-inch increments across a full range of diameters, so you can dial in the exact neck fit your rifle demands. The .249-inch size is one of dozens available, making it easy to find or experiment with the bushing diameter that works best for your specific cases and chamber. Keep a couple of sizes on hand for load development, or stick with one for your primary hunting or range rifle.
