Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.261

The Redding 73 Style Steel Bushing/.261 is a heat-treated neck sizing bushing engineered for precision handloaders who demand consistent case neck dimensions. This .261" bushing fits Redding 73-style sizing dies and brings the hardened-steel construction and hand-polished finish that serious reloaders expect from Redding's proven bushing line. Whether you're prepping rifle brass for match shooting, hunting loads, or general target work, a properly sized neck is the foundation of accuracy and reliable feeding—and this bushing delivers that consistency shot after shot.

Redding's bushing approach lets you dial in your exact neck sizing needs without guesswork. The .261" diameter works for cartridges that call for that specific neck size; if your dies require a different bushing size, Redding offers the full range from .185" through .368" in .001" increments, so you're covered across most rifle and pistol applications. The hand-polished sizing surface and heat-treatment to Rc 60–62 hardness reduce the effort needed to push cases through, easing reloading fatigue during long sessions and extending die life.

Installation is straightforward: this bushing simply threads into your 73-style die body. Whether you're a volume reloader fine-tuning a favorite hunting load or a precision shooter chasing tight velocity spreads, having the right bushing size on hand keeps your workflow efficient and your cases uniform.
