Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.250

The Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.250 is a precision neck-sizing bushing designed for reloaders who demand smooth, friction-free operation and long-term durability in their ammunition assembly process. Built on a heat-treated steel base and finished with a titanium nitride coating, this bushing increases effective surface hardness while reducing sizing friction—two critical factors when you're processing dozens or hundreds of rounds. If you're working with .250-caliber cartridges or other loads in the .250" range, this is the upgrade your sizing die setup has been waiting for.

Titanium nitride coating does more than just look gold; it measurably cuts the drag and wear inside your sizing die. This means easier operation, less denting on your loaded rounds, and longer bushing life before replacement becomes necessary. Reloaders who've made the jump to coated bushings consistently report the difference in feel and consistency, especially when running production loads or working with premium brass you want to preserve.

Redding's bushing lineup spans .185" through .368" in .001" increments, so you can dial in exact neck fit for your specific cartridge. The .250" size fits squarely in the middle of that range, making it suitable for a variety of medium-bore applications. Whether you're fine-tuning match ammunition, prepping hunting loads, or simply tired of fighting sizing friction, a titanium nitride bushing is a straightforward, cost-effective upgrade to your reloading bench.

Frequently Asked Questions

What cartridges use a .250" neck-sizing bushing?

The .250" bushing is sized for cartridges with a .250" bullet diameter and works in any Redding bushing-style neck-sizing die that accepts it. Redding offers bushings in .001" increments from .185" to .368", so you can confirm the exact size you need for your specific cartridge.

Why choose a titanium nitride coated bushing over standard steel?

The titanium nitride coating significantly reduces sizing friction and increases the hardness of the bushing surface, which means smoother operation, less wear, and longer bushing life. For reloaders processing volume or wanting less strain on their brass, the upgrade is worthwhile.

Is this bushing compatible with my Redding die?

This bushing is designed for Redding bushing-style neck-sizing dies. If your die accepts interchangeable bushings, this will fit; if you're unsure of your die's design, confirm it accepts Redding bushings before ordering.

What's included?

You receive the titanium nitride-coated .250" bushing only. It installs into your existing Redding neck-sizing die in place of any standard bushing you currently have.
