The Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.252 is a premium neck-sizing bushing designed for serious handloaders who want smoother operation and longer die life. This .252" bushing fits Redding's bushing-style neck-sizing dies and features a titanium nitride coating applied over heat-treated steel—a combination that boosts surface hardness and significantly reduces the friction you'll feel when sizing case necks. If you're loading precision rifle rounds and tired of fighting sticky sizing, this upgrade delivers noticeably easier operation without sacrificing consistency.
Titanium nitride coating does more than make sizing feel easier; it extends tool life by protecting against wear and corrosion. The bushing's tight tolerances and durable surface finish mean you'll resize cases more smoothly, stroke after stroke, which translates to less operator fatigue during longer reloading sessions and more uniform neck tension across your batches. This is the kind of incremental improvement that compounds over thousands of rounds.
Redding offers these bushings in .001" size increments across a wide range (.185" through .368"), so you can dial in the exact neck fit your die requires. The .252 size covers common small-rifle and precision handgun applications. Simply swap your standard bushing for this titanium nitride version—no other die modifications needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size bushing do I need for my reloading die?
Bushing size depends on your specific cartridge and desired neck tension. The .252" bushing is sized for applications requiring a .252" inside diameter. Consult your die manual or contact us to confirm the correct bushing size for your setup.
Will this bushing work with my Redding die?
Yes—this bushing is designed for Redding's bushing-style neck-sizing dies. Simply remove your current bushing and install the titanium nitride version in its place; no die modifications are required.
What's the advantage of the titanium nitride coating?
Titanium nitride increases surface hardness, reduces friction during case sizing, and resists wear and corrosion. The result is smoother operation, longer bushing life, and less operator fatigue when reloading large batches.
Can I use this bushing with progressive or single-stage presses?
This bushing works with any Redding bushing-style neck-sizing die, regardless of press type. Your press compatibility depends on whether your die fits your press—the bushing itself is press-agnostic.
