The Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.256 is a precision neck-sizing bushing engineered for reloaders who demand consistent case neck dimensions and minimal press effort. Redding's 73-series bushings are the workhorse of neck-sizing operations—they slip into your Redding dies to control how much you resize the case neck, allowing you to fine-tune fit without unnecessary sizing pressure that can work-harden brass or cause brass separation over time.
This .256" bushing is heat-treated steel, hand-polished to a surface hardness of Rc 60-62, which delivers smooth sizing action and extends the life of your reloading dies and brass. That polished finish isn't cosmetic—it genuinely reduces the force needed to push cases through, lowering fatigue on your press and your hands during long loading sessions. The .256" size fits cases in that diameter range and is part of Redding's complete bushing lineup, available in .001" increments from .185" to .368".
Whether you're preparing match-grade rifle ammo, handgun rounds, or hunting loads, having the right bushing size for your specific brass is fundamental to consistent velocities and point-of-impact. A properly sized neck—not too tight, not too loose—ensures reliable chambering and repeatable ballistics. This is the kind of detail that separates good reloaders from great ones.
