Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.335

The Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing in .335 diameter is a precision neck-sizing component for handloaders who demand tight, consistent ammunition. This heat-treated steel bushing handles the critical job of controlling case neck diameter during the resizing stroke—essential when you're building match-grade rounds for competition, long-range hunting, or dedicated barrel work. The .335 size fits cases in that range, and it's part of Redding's comprehensive bushing lineup that covers everything from .185" to .368" in .001" increments, so you can dial in the exact fit your brass and bullets require.

What sets this bushing apart is the engineering: hand-polished sizing surfaces with a surface hardness of Rc 60–62 reduce the effort needed to size your cases, meaning smoother operation and less wear on your press over thousands of rounds. That hardness also extends bushing life and keeps dimensional consistency shot after shot. If you're running a Redding 73 Style neck-sizing die, this bushing is the wear item you'll eventually need to replace as it does its job year after year.

Handloaders who prioritize precision—whether for BR competitions, varmint loads, or rifle development—appreciate Redding bushings because they're a straightforward, affordable way to maintain the neck tension and bullet seating consistency that separates good ammunition from great ammunition. The .335 diameter covers a useful range of cases, making it a smart addition to any serious reloader's die cabinet.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this bushing work with my Redding neck-sizing die?

This .335 bushing is designed for Redding 73 Style neck-sizing dies. If you own a Redding 73 Style die, this bushing will fit and function as the wear component that sizes your case necks.

What does the .335 diameter mean?

The .335 diameter refers to the sizing bore of the bushing. Redding offers bushings in .001" increments from .185" through .368", so the .335 size covers cases in that neck diameter range. Choose the bushing that matches your case and desired neck tension.

How long will this bushing last?

Bushing life depends on how many rounds you size and the hardness of your brass, but the Rc 60–62 surface hardness is engineered to resist wear through thousands of sizing cycles. Eventually, the polished sizing surface will wear and require replacement—that's normal and expected.
