Hornady Match Grade Bushing .261"

The Hornady Match Grade Bushing .261" is a precision reloading component designed for handloaders seeking match-winning accuracy and repeatability. This interchangeable neck sizing bushing is integral to Hornady's New Dimension die system, catering to shooters involved in benchrest, long-range precision rifle, and other disciplines where case neck concentricity is crucial for velocity consistency and group tightness.

By providing independent neck sizing control, this bushing prevents the oversizing that typically occurs with conventional full-length sizing, thereby extending case life and maintaining tight ammunition tolerances. The .261" bushing features a self-centering design that aligns case necks concentrically with the die body, minimizing run-out that can compromise accuracy. Hornady manufactures Match Grade bushings in .002" diameter increments, allowing for precise tuning of neck fit to specific brass and bullet combinations.

Precision rifle reloaders, competition shooters, and dedicated handloaders aiming to enhance ammunition consistency will find significant advantages with this Match Grade bushing. Its compact form factor of 1.8 x 0.75 x 3.15 inches integrates seamlessly into standard progressive and single-stage press setups without the need for special adapters or modifications. The .261" diameter is specifically suited for certain cartridge families and works effectively within Hornady's New Dimension die system.
