Hornady Match Grade Bushing .287"

The Hornady Match Grade Bushing .287" is a precision reloading component engineered for shooters who demand repeatable, match-grade accuracy from their handloading setup. This interchangeable neck sizing bushing works with Hornady's New Dimension Dies, delivering the ultra-precise case neck alignment that competitive and long-range shooters require to eliminate case overworking and achieve consistent cartridge dimensions.

The .287" bushing specification represents a critical sizing dimension for precision handloading. Available in .002" increments across Hornady's lineup, these self-centering bushings allow reloaders to fine-tune neck fit without oversizing brass, preserving case life and maintaining shot-to-shot consistency. The interchangeable design means you can optimize bushing selection for different brass lots or bullet diameters without replacing entire dies—a significant advantage for serious handloaders managing multiple calibers or precision shooting disciplines.

This bushing is designed for reloaders pursuing tight velocity spreads and minimal point-of-impact variation—benchrest competitors, long-range hunters, and precision rifle shooters who understand that case neck control is foundational to ammunition quality. The .287" size serves specific caliber applications where proper neck diameter directly impacts bullet seating consistency and case neck tension, both critical to match-winning performance at distance.

Hornady's Match Grade line represents a proven approach in precision reloading: providing the dimensional control and component flexibility that separate hand-tuned ammunition from mass-produced alternatives. The bushing format gives you the precision-reloading equivalent of fine-tuning, adjusting your press setup to match your brass and bullets rather than forcing both into a one-size-fits-all die.
