Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.361
The Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.361 is a precision neck-sizing component built for reloaders who demand consistency and durability at the press. This .361" bushing fits Redding's bushing-style neck-sizing dies, letting you fine-tune case neck fit for match-grade concentricity and repeatable bullet seating. The titanium nitride coating—applied over heat-treated steel—boosts surface hardness significantly, cuts sizing friction, and extends bushing life, especially when processing large case volumes or harder brass alloys.
Neck-sizing with the right bushing diameter is the backbone of precision handloading. A .361" bushing works for cartridges with that neck dimension; Redding offers bushings in .001" increments across the full range, so you can dial in exact fit for your specific brass and bullet combination. The titanium nitride finish isn't just cosmetic—it reduces die wear, minimizes case runout, and makes the sizing stroke smoother, all of which add up to more consistent velocities and tighter groups downrange.
If you're already running a Redding bushing die system, swapping bushings is straightforward and lets you resize for different cartridges or adjust fit without buying a whole new die. The coating also resists corrosion, so your bushing stays sharp even in less-than-ideal reloading bench conditions. For hunters, competition shooters, and bench-rest enthusiasts who reload their own ammunition, a quality titanium nitride bushing is a small investment that pays dividends in accuracy and reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Redding dies does this bushing fit?
This bushing is designed for Redding's bushing-style neck-sizing dies. If you own a Redding bushing die system, this .361" bushing will drop in and replace your existing bushing to resize cases with .361" neck dimensions.
How is titanium nitride coating different from standard bushings?
The titanium nitride coating bonds to the heat-treated steel surface, hardening it beyond what the base steel alone can achieve. This reduces friction during sizing, extends bushing life by resisting wear, and helps minimize case runout for tighter concentricity—all factors that contribute to more consistent handloaded ammunition.
Do I need a different die to use this bushing, or does it swap into my existing die?
This bushing is a drop-in replacement for Redding bushing dies. If you already own a Redding bushing-style neck-sizing die, you can swap bushings without purchasing a new die—ideal for reloaders who want to resize multiple cartridge types with the same die body.
What cartridges use a .361" neck bushing?
The .361" bushing is sized for cartridges with .361" neck diameters. Check your specific cartridge's reloading manual or Redding's bushing size chart to confirm the correct diameter for your caliber. Redding offers bushings in .001" increments to match virtually any standard cartridge.
