The Hornady 0.286'' Match Grade Bushing is a precision neck sizing component designed for reloaders who demand tight case neck control and consistent bullet tension. This interchangeable bushing works with Hornady's Match Grade die system to let you dial in exactly how much grip your case neck exerts on the bullet—eliminating guesswork and the risk of over-sizing brass that reduces case life. If you're loading match ammunition, hunting rounds where consistency matters, or simply want to extend the lifespan of your brass, this bushing gives you the control to do it.
Hornady manufactures these bushings in 0.002-inch increments, so you can find the precise fit for your specific bullet and case combination. The self-centering design ensures uniform neck sizing every time, and the bushing installs easily into either a Match Grade Full Length Die or Match Grade Neck Die. This approach—swapping bushings rather than buying multiple dies—is both cost-effective and practical for reloaders who work with several bullet diameters or want to fine-tune their loads.
The Match Grade system pairs this bushing with a self-centering decap spindle, o-ring spindle tensioner, and the same reliable expander ball and headed decap pin found in Hornady's Custom Grade Dies. The result is precision reloading equipment that's built to last and finished to exacting standards. Whether you're setting up a new die system or expanding an existing one, this bushing is the kind of component that separates careful handloading from casual cartridge assembly.
| Bushing Diameter | 0.286'' |
| Manufacturer | Hornady |
| Type | Neck Sizing Bushing |
| Sizing Increment | 0.002'' |
This bushing is designed for use with Hornady Match Grade Full Length Dies and Match Grade Neck Dies. The self-centering design ensures it fits and performs properly in either application.
Bushings are available in 0.002-inch increments. You'll select a size based on your specific bullet diameter and the amount of neck tension you want. Start with a bushing close to your bullet diameter and adjust from there to achieve consistent, controlled fit without over-sizing your case neck.
The interchangeable bushing system lets you achieve precise, repeatable neck sizing without over-working your brass. By controlling exactly how much the case neck is sized, you extend brass life and maintain tighter load consistency—especially valuable for match ammunition or precision hunting loads. You also avoid buying multiple dies for different bullet diameters.
This listing is for the bushing component itself. It installs into a Hornady Match Grade Full Length Die or Match Grade Neck Die, which you will need to purchase separately if you don't already own them.
