The Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.274 is a precision reloading die component built for handloaders who demand smooth, consistent neck sizing without the wear and friction that can compromise case quality over thousands of rounds. This .274" bushing is coated with titanium nitride, a hard ceramic surface treatment that significantly reduces sizing friction while extending bushing life—a meaningful upgrade over standard steel bushings, especially for high-volume reloaders or competition shooters working with tight tolerances.
Redding's titanium nitride bushings start with heat-treated steel as the base material, then add the proprietary titanium nitride coating to boost effective surface hardness. The result is a bushing that sizes cases more smoothly, runs cooler, and resists the gradual wear that can eventually affect case fit and neck tension consistency. For reloaders working with .274" diameter necks—typically .270 Winchester, 6.8 SPC, or other .27-caliber cartridges—this bushing pairs with Redding's Type S or Competition bushing die bodies to give you adjustable, repeatable neck sizing.
Redding manufactures these bushings in .001" increments across the full range from .185" to .368", so finding the right fit for your cartridge and case is straightforward. The titanium nitride coating isn't just a marketing angle; it's a practical durability advantage that pays off if you reload in volume or demand precision for hunting or range work.

Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers use a .274" bushing?
A .274" bushing is sized for cartridges with .274" diameter necks, including .270 Winchester, .270 WSM, 6.8 SPC, and similar .27-caliber rounds. Always verify your specific cartridge's neck diameter before ordering.
What die bodies work with Redding titanium nitride bushings?
These bushings are designed for Redding Type S and Competition bushing die bodies. Check your die documentation or contact Redding directly if you're unsure about compatibility with your specific die.
How does titanium nitride coating improve reloading?
The titanium nitride coating increases surface hardness, reduces friction during case sizing, and slows the gradual wear that occurs with repeated use. This means smoother sizing, less heat buildup, and longer bushing life—particularly valuable for high-volume reloaders.
Can I use this bushing with other reloading die brands?
This bushing is manufactured for Redding bushing die bodies. Compatibility with other brands' dies is not confirmed by the available specifications; contact Redding or your die manufacturer to verify fit before use.
