Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.340
The Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing in .340 is a precision neck-sizing component for reloaders who demand smooth operation and durability. This bushing is engineered with a titanium nitride coating applied over heat-treated steel, creating a significantly harder surface than uncoated alternatives. The coating reduces sizing friction, which means easier press operation, less wear on your equipment, and more consistent sizing cycles—especially valuable if you're processing large batches or working with premium brass.
Redding's titanium nitride neck-sizing bushings are sized in .001" increments across the full range from .185" to .368", so the .340 bushing fits right into that precision lineup. Whether you're loading for a .340 Weatherby Magnum, a wildcat, or another cartridge with a .340" neck diameter, this bushing pairs with Redding's bushing-style dies to deliver the controlled, repeatable neck tension that match-grade ammunition demands.
The coating isn't just about longevity—it's about the reloading experience. A harder surface means less galling and buildup during sizing, translating to cleaner brass and less downtime for cleaning. If you're already running a quality Redding reloading die, upgrading to a titanium nitride bushing is a straightforward way to extend component life and improve efficiency at the press.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a titanium nitride bushing and a standard Redding bushing?
The titanium nitride coating adds a significantly harder surface layer over the heat-treated steel base. This reduces friction during sizing, makes the bushing more resistant to wear and galling, and can extend the life of both the bushing and your brass. It's worth the upgrade if you reload regularly or process large quantities.
Will a .340 bushing work with my Redding die set?
Yes, but only if your die is a bushing-style neck-sizing die from Redding. Redding bushings are designed to work with their bushing dies. Check your die documentation or the Redding website to confirm your die accepts interchangeable bushings.
What calibers use a .340 neck bushing?
The .340" neck diameter is found in cartridges like the .340 Weatherby Magnum and some wildcats. If you're unsure whether your cartridge needs a .340 bushing, measure your loaded round's neck diameter or consult your reloading manual and die documentation.
Can I use this bushing with other reloading press brands?
Redding bushings work with Redding bushing-style dies. Compatibility with other die manufacturers is not guaranteed. Stick with Redding dies to ensure proper fit and function.
