Redding 222 Remington Competition Bushing Neck Die Set$315.53
Availability: In Stock
The Redding 260 Remington Competition Bushing Neck Die Set is purpose-built for rifle reloaders who demand tight, consistent neck sizing and bullet seating. This three-die set includes a Competition Bushing Neck Sizing Die, a Body Die, and a Competition Bullet Seater—all engineered to the tolerances serious handloaders need for match-grade ammunition and precision hunting loads. If you're loading for a 260 Remington and want repeatable results, this setup gives you the control to achieve them.
The Competition Bushing Neck Die works differently than standard dies. Your case sits in a tightly chambered, sliding sleeve that supports and aligns it before sizing begins. As you stroke up, the case stays supported while the resizing bushing self-centers on the neck—much like a firing pin guides itself in a chamber. The decapping rod gets the same treatment, held in precise alignment by the die's internal geometry. A micrometer adjustment lets you dial in exactly how much neck material gets sized, giving you repeatability that generic dies can't match.
The Body Die handles full-length resizing of the case body and bumps the shoulder back to spec, all without disturbing the neck you've already sized. That separation of duties—neck handling by the Neck Die, body handling by the Body Die—is what competition loaders love. Finally, the Competition Bullet Seater uses a floating stem system with tight tolerances throughout. The fit between bullet guide and stem is so precise that the stem literally floats, letting the bullet self-center during seating for consistent concentricity.
Bushings and a shellholder are sold separately; you'll need to source those to complete your setup. This is a solid choice for 260 Remington loaders who are serious about ammunition quality.
| Caliber | 260 Remington |
| Type | Three-Die Set (Bushing Neck Sizing Die, Body Die, Bullet Seater) |
| Neck Die Features | Micrometer adjustment, sliding sleeve support, self-centering bushing |
| Seater Features | Micrometer adjustment, floating stem system |
| Bushings | Sold separately |
| Shellholder | Sold separately |
The set contains three dies: a Competition Bushing Neck Sizing Die, a Body Die, and a Competition Bullet Seater. Bushings and a shellholder are not included and must be purchased separately.
Bushing neck dies give you precision control over how much neck material you size, which is critical for consistency and concentricity. The self-centering bushing and sliding sleeve support keep your case aligned throughout the process, and the micrometer adjustment lets you fine-tune sizing depth—advantages standard dies don't offer.
The Body Die is designed to resize the case body and bump the shoulder back to proper dimensions for reliable chambering, while leaving the neck untouched. This separation of work—handled by the dedicated Neck Die and Body Die—gives you more control over your finished ammo than a conventional full-length sizing die.
Yes. The micrometer adjustments, floating stem seating system, and precision engineering throughout make this set well-suited to shooters building match-grade ammo or precision hunting loads where consistency and concentricity matter.
