Hornady Match Grade Bushing .291"

The Hornady Match Grade Bushing .291" is a precision neck sizing component engineered for shooters who demand consistency at the highest level. Designed for use with Hornady's Match Grade New Dimension reloading dies, this .291" bushing delivers the precise case neck control required to achieve match-winning accuracy. The interchangeable bushing system allows you to select the exact neck size needed for your ammunition, available in .002" increments, eliminating the risk of oversizing case necks and premature brass fatigue.

Neck sizing with a self-centering bushing works by applying a progressive, uniform compression around the case neck—unlike full-length sizing, which can distort brass and reduce its service life. The .291" bushing size is calibrated for specific cartridges where this neck diameter is optimal for bullet seating. Because the bushing is interchangeable, you can switch between different neck sizes without replacing the entire die, making it an economical solution for reloaders who process multiple lots of brass or work with bullets from different manufacturers where neck fit varies slightly. This precision engineering minimizes runout, improves velocity consistency, and extends case life—all critical factors in competitive reloading.

This bushing is the choice for precision rifle shooters, competitive handloaders, and benchrest competitors who understand that accuracy begins with consistent case preparation. Whether you're loading for a match rifle, a precision bolt gun, or a dedicated target platform, the ability to fine-tune neck sizing in .002" increments is a direct path to tighter shot groups and lower extreme spreads. The Match Grade bushing system represents a significant investment in reloading quality—one that pays dividends in accuracy and brass longevity.
