Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.363

The Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.363 is a precision neck-sizing component built for reloaders who demand consistency and control over case dimensions. This .363" bushing fits Redding's 73 Style dies and gives you the ability to fine-tune neck sizing in .001" increments—critical for shooters running tight ammunition specs for target work, benchrest competition, or any situation where case-to-chamber fit directly affects accuracy. Heat-treated steel construction with a hard, polished sizing surface means less resistance during the sizing stroke and longer tool life, especially valuable when you're processing large batches of brass.

Redding manufactures these bushings across a full spectrum of sizes, and the hand-polished bore is hardened to Rc 60-62 for durability and consistency. Whether you're prepping match ammunition or simply want tighter control over your neck dimensions than a conventional full-length die offers, a bushing system lets you dial in exactly what your chambers require. The .363" diameter covered by this bushing suits a range of common cartridges and wildcats, making it a versatile option for various reloading setups.

Installing the correct bushing size is straightforward—simply drop it into your 73 Style die and you're ready to size. If your current bushing isn't giving you the neck tension or fit you need, stepping up or down by a thousandth is a quick fix that doesn't require new dies. Keep a couple of sizes on hand for load development or when switching between rifles with slightly different chamber dimensions.
