Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.333

The Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing in .333" diameter is a precision neck-sizing component designed for reloaders who demand smooth, consistent performance and extended tool life. This bushing fits into Redding's neck-sizing die system and handles the critical task of precisely controlling case neck dimensions during the reloading process. The titanium nitride coating applied to the heat-treated steel base dramatically increases surface hardness compared to standard bushings, which translates to reduced friction during sizing and measurably longer service life before wear becomes noticeable.

If you're running a high-volume reloading operation or simply want to minimize the wear and tear on your equipment, the titanium nitride coating pays for itself through reliable, consistent performance across hundreds of sizing cycles. The coating reduces the need for frequent bushing replacement—a real benefit when you're processing large batches of ammunition or loading for multiple firearms. Whether you're preparing match-grade handloads for precision rifle competition or processing brass for regular hunting trips, a properly fitted bushing is fundamental to neck tension control and case longevity.

Redding offers bushings in .001" increments across the full reloading caliber spectrum, so finding the exact size your cartridge needs is straightforward. The .333" bushing fits cartridges in that size range and pairs with standard Redding neck-sizing dies.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a neck-sizing bushing and what does it do?

A neck-sizing bushing is the working component inside a Redding neck-sizing die that controls how much the case neck is compressed during the sizing stroke. It ensures consistent neck tension on your bullets, which directly affects accuracy and shot-to-shot velocity consistency. The bushing diameter determines how much the case neck is sized.

How do I know what size bushing I need?

Bushing size is determined by your specific cartridge and your desired neck tension. Most reloaders start by measuring their fired case necks and working backward from there. Redding offers bushings in .001" increments to allow fine-tuning of neck tension for your particular setup.

What's the advantage of the titanium nitride coating?

The titanium nitride coating increases the surface hardness of the bushing, which reduces friction during the sizing stroke and slows wear. This means smoother operation, less need for sizing lubricant, and a longer service life before the bushing requires replacement—a significant benefit if you reload in volume.

Is this bushing compatible with all Redding neck-sizing dies?

This bushing is designed for Redding neck-sizing die systems that use their interchangeable bushing design. Verify compatibility with your specific die model before ordering.
