The Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.328 is a precision reloading die component engineered for shooters who demand minimal sizing friction and maximum die longevity. If you're running a progressive or single-stage press and neck-sizing bottleneck cartridges, this bushing delivers the hard-surface coating technology that keeps your dies running clean and cool through thousands of rounds. The .328" diameter fits cartridges in that bore range, and the titanium nitride finish is the upgrade path for reloaders who've outgrown standard steel bushings.
Redding's titanium nitride coating isn't just a sales gimmick—it measurably reduces friction between the bushing and your brass, which means less heat generation, less sizing force required, and less wear on your equipment over time. This matters whether you're prepping match ammo for a PRS match, building hunting loads, or simply running high-volume brass through a sizing die. The coating is applied to heat-treated steel, so you're getting both surface hardness and core toughness.
Bushing dies give you flexibility that standard fixed dies don't: you can fine-tune neck tension by swapping bushings in .001" increments, which is essential for handloaders chasing repeatable velocities and tight groups. The .328" size sits in Redding's mid-range catalog and is available alongside bushings from .185" through .368" in single-thousandth steps, so you can build a complete bushing library as your reloading bench grows.

Frequently Asked Questions
What cartridges use a .328" neck sizing bushing?
Redding's .328" bushing is sized for cartridges with a .328" neck diameter. Consult your cartridge's SAAMI specifications or your reloading manual to confirm the correct bushing size for your round—bushings are available in .001" increments from .185" through .368".
Can I use this bushing with a Redding bushing-style neck sizing die?
Yes, this bushing is designed as a swappable component for Redding neck sizing dies that use the bushing system. Confirm your die model supports interchangeable bushings before ordering.
Why choose titanium nitride over standard steel bushings?
The titanium nitride coating increases surface hardness and reduces friction between the bushing and brass, resulting in less heat, lower sizing forces, and extended bushing life—especially valuable if you reload high volumes or demand tight neck tension tolerances.
Can I adjust neck tension by changing bushings?
Yes. Redding bushing dies allow you to swap bushings in .001" increments to fine-tune neck tension, which is useful for optimizing concentricity and velocity consistency in precision handloads.
