The Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.249 is a precision neck sizing bushing engineered for reloaders who demand consistent, friction-free case preparation. This .249-inch bushing features a titanium nitride coating applied over heat-treated steel, a combination that dramatically increases surface hardness and reduces the drag that slows your reloading workflow. If you're neck sizing rifle or pistol brass and want to minimize wear on both your cases and your sizing die, a coated bushing like this one pays dividends in the long run.
Titanium nitride coating serves a practical purpose beyond durability: it lowers the coefficient of friction between the bushing and your case shoulder, meaning less force required to size and less heat generation during the operation. That translates to faster sizing, easier operation on a press, and extended life of both the bushing and your brass. Reloaders working with tight-tolerance, match-grade ammunition often choose coated bushings to maintain case dimensions shot after shot without the variation that can creep in with uncoated alternatives.
Redding's bushing system is modular and straightforward—this .249 bushing slots into Redding's neck sizer dies and is sized in .001-inch increments across the full range of common calibers. Whether you're loading for precision rifle competition, long-range hunting, or high-volume pistol work, swapping bushings lets you fine-tune neck tension to your exact specifications and ammunition goals.
| Bushing Size | .249 inch |
| Coating | Titanium Nitride |
| Base Material | Heat-treated steel |
| Increments Available | .001 inch throughout range |
The .249 bushing is sized for small rifle and pistol cartridges. Consult your specific cartridge reloading data or Redding's bushing sizing chart to confirm the correct bushing for your caliber.
The titanium nitride coating increases surface hardness and reduces friction between the bushing and your case neck, making sizing easier, faster, and requiring less press force. This also reduces heat and wear on both the bushing and your brass.
This bushing is designed for Redding neck sizer dies that accept modular bushings. If you're unsure whether your die accepts bushings, check your die documentation or contact Redding directly.
Yes. Redding bushings are available in .001-inch size increments, allowing you to fine-tune neck tension by swapping bushings without replacing the entire die—ideal for optimizing brass fit and ammunition consistency.
