Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.365

The Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.365 is a precision neck-sizing component built for reloaders who demand consistency and control over every round. If you're running a Redding Type S bushing die and need to tailor neck fit to your specific brass and bullet combination, this .365" bushing gives you the precise sizing diameter that matches your exact requirements. Heat-treated steel construction with a hardness rating of Rc 60–62 means the bushing resists wear through thousands of sizing cycles while the hand-polished sizing surfaces reduce the effort needed to push cases through—a real advantage when you're processing large batches or working with tougher brass.

Redding offers neck-sizing bushings in .001" increments across the full range from .185" to .368", so you can dial in the fit that works best for your chamber, die, and ammunition goals. Whether you're a competitive shooter fine-tuning runout and neck tension, a hunter loading precision handloads for a specific rifle, or a reloader optimizing performance and consistency, the ability to choose your exact bushing size is a hallmark of serious reloading work. The .365" size in this listing covers a common range of cartridges and allows you to build loads with minimal neck runout.

This is a straightforward, no-frills precision tool: a single steel bushing ready to drop into your Redding Type S die. It's the kind of small-bore reloading component that doesn't make headlines but makes a measurable difference in accuracy and ease of use, round after round.

Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What Redding die does this bushing fit?

This bushing is designed for Redding Type S bushing dies. Check your die specification to confirm compatibility before ordering.

How do I know if a .365" bushing is the right size for my cartridge?

Bushing selection depends on your specific cartridge, bullet diameter, brass, and desired neck fit. Most reloaders consult their die manual or load data to determine the correct bushing size. Redding offers bushings in .001" increments, so you can fine-tune fit if needed.

What's the benefit of the hand-polished sizing diameter?

The polished surface reduces friction during sizing, making it easier to push cases through the die and lowering the pressure required, which can extend die life and improve consistency over many loading cycles.

Can I use different bushing sizes with the same die?

Yes—that's the whole point of Redding's bushing system. You can swap bushings to adjust neck fit without buying multiple dies, which makes it a cost-effective way to optimize your loads or use the same die for slightly different cartridge variants.
