Hornady Match Grade Bushing .244"

The Hornady Match Grade Bushing .244" is a precision neck sizing bushing engineered for reloaders who demand match-grade accuracy and brass longevity. Designed for use with Hornady's New Dimension die sets, this .244" bushing enables ultra-precise case neck alignment while preventing the oversizing and work-hardening that degrades brass life and accuracy potential. The self-centering design eliminates concentricity errors during the sizing stroke—a critical advantage for competitive shooters and precision rifle builders who measure performance in fractions of an inch.

Hornady manufactures these bushings in .002" diameter increments, allowing reloaders to dial in neck tension with surgical precision. The .244" size suits cartridges with .244" bullet diameters and is interchangeable within the New Dimension die platform, making it a cost-effective upgrade path for existing Hornady progressive and single-stage press setups. By controlling case neck dimensions rather than over-sizing and relying on bullet pull, this approach preserves case capacity, reduces neck stress, and extends brass lifespan through multiple reloading cycles.

This bushing is ideal for precision rifle competitors, benchrest shooters, and handloaders pursuing sub-MOA group sizes. Long-range hunters and tactical marksmen also benefit from the consistency it delivers. The .244" specification is compatible with 6mm cartridges and similar bullet-diameter loads where match-grade neck sizing is non-negotiable for accuracy and component efficiency.

Hornady's reputation in reloading precision components is built on attention to dimensional tolerances and material consistency. This bushing reflects that standard and serves as a direct upgrade for any New Dimension die user seeking to tighten their reloading process and extend brass service life without sacrificing accuracy.
