Redding Neck Sizing Bushings .264"

The Redding Neck Sizing Bushings .264" are precision reloading components engineered for rifle cartridge neck control during the handloading process. These bushings deliver exact tension on bullet jackets, a critical variable that directly affects case life, neck runout, and shot-to-shot consistency. The .264" diameter sizing bushing is purpose-built for cartridges in the 6.5mm range, including 6.5 Creedmoor, .264 Winchester Magnum, and similar calibers where neck tension precision separates match-grade ammunition from field loads.

Redding constructs these bushings from heat-treated steel with a titanium nitride surface treatment that increases effective hardness while reducing friction during the sizing stroke. This coating extends bushing life and ensures consistent pressure throughout the reloading session, preventing the bushing wear that introduces variance in neck tension. The .264" bushing fits Redding's competition and standard reloading dies, offering handloaders a straightforward way to dial in the precise neck control their precision loads demand. Bushings are available across a full spectrum of diameters (.256" through .338"), allowing shooters to fine-tune tension based on bullet diameter, case wall thickness, and individual press characteristics.

Competitive rifle shooters, long-range precision reloaders, and benchrest competitors rely on bushing-style dies to eliminate runout and standardize neck tension across production runs. This .264" bushing is an essential component for anyone loading 6.5mm match ammunition or developing loads where consistency directly impacts group size. Handloaders working up loads for accuracy-critical applications—competition shooting, long-range hunting, or precision rifle matches—will find this bushing an economical way to upgrade their sizing process without replacing entire die sets.
