Hornady Match Grade Bushing .362"$22.13
Availability: In Stock
The Hornady Match Grade Bushing in .291" is a precision neck sizing bushing designed for reloaders who want tight control over case neck tension and bullet fit. If you're using Hornady Match Grade dies—whether the full-length or neck-sizing versions—these interchangeable bushings let you dial in exactly how much grip your case neck applies to the bullet, rather than accepting a one-size-fits-all approach. This is the key to consistent, accurate ammunition and extended case life, especially for match shooting or precision hunting where uniformity matters.
The .291" bushing is one of the standard increments Hornady offers, spaced at .002" intervals so you can find the right fit for your specific bullet diameter and desired tension. Install it into your die, and the self-centering design positions it automatically—no guessing or fidgeting required. Because you're sizing only to the amount necessary for your setup, you avoid over-working the brass, which means your cases stay in the game longer and resist cracking from repeated sizing cycles.
Whether you're running a Match Grade full-length die (which sizes body and bumps shoulder) or a neck die (shoulder bump only, no body sizing), this bushing swaps in easily and works with the self-centering decap spindle, o-ring tensioner, and elliptical expander ball that come standard on Match Grade equipment. Match Grade dies represent the next step up from Hornady's Custom Grade line, and the precision finish and engineering show it. If you're serious about reloading accuracy and brass longevity, swapping bushings to dial in your neck tension is a simple upgrade that pays dividends.
| Bushing Diameter | .291" |
| Brand | Hornady |
| Type | Neck Sizing Bushing |
| Compatibility | Hornady Match Grade Dies |
| Increment Spacing | .002" (standard increment set) |
This bushing is designed specifically for Hornady Match Grade dies. It will not fit Custom Grade or other die designs. Confirm your die is labeled Match Grade before purchasing.
The .291" measurement is the inside diameter of the bushing. You should select a bushing that matches your bullet diameter plus your desired neck tension—typically 0.001" to 0.003" larger than bullet diameter. Hornady offers these bushings in .002" increments so you can fine-tune fit without oversizing.
Yes. This bushing works with both Hornady Match Grade full-length dies and Match Grade neck dies. The difference is what the die does to the case body and shoulder, not the bushing itself.
By sizing the neck only to what you need for your bullet fit, you avoid unnecessary working of the brass. Over-sizing fatigues the metal and shortens case life; right-sizing stretches it significantly, which is especially valuable for precision and competitive reloading.
