The Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.259 is a precision neck-sizing bushing designed for handloaders who want tight, consistent case neck control. If you're working up loads for accuracy and prefer the flexibility of bushing-style sizing dies, this .259" bushing gives you the precise inside diameter needed to manage case neck tension without full-length sizing. Redding's heat-treated steel construction and hand-polished sizing surfaces mean less sizing effort and longer die life—especially valuable when you're processing volume or working with premium brass.
Neck-sizing bushings are available across a wide range of diameters in .001" increments, and this .259" size slots into Redding's modular system. If your reloading setup already uses 73 Style dies, swapping bushings lets you tailor neck fit to different calibers or case lots without buying new dies. The Rc 60–62 surface hardness is Redding's standard for bushing durability, resisting wear and galling through thousands of rounds.
This is a wear item—over time and with heavy use, the interior diameter gradually changes—but Redding bushings are priced to replace when sizing effort increases noticeably or case fit degrades. Having a spare on hand is smart practice for serious reloaders.
