Redding Steel Neck Bushings .288"

The Redding Steel Neck Bushings .288" (SKU RB73288) are precision reloading accessories engineered for handloaders who demand tight bullet-to-case neck fit and consistent tension control. Designed for use with Redding's full-length sizing dies, these bushings address a fundamental challenge in precision ammunition loading: controlling neck tension across brass that varies slightly in wall thickness from case to case.

Each bushing is self-centering and fully interchangeable, allowing shooters to select the exact diameter that yields optimal bullet grip without over-sizing the case neck. The .288" specification suits intermediate cartridges in the 7mm family. By eliminating the traditional expander ball pull—which can introduce runout and inconsistent neck tension—these bushings reduce case work and extend brass life. The changeable design means a single die set can accommodate multiple neck tension requirements simply by swapping bushings, making this system invaluable for competitive shooters, long-range precision rifles, and serious reloaders optimizing for accuracy.

This bushing serves bolt-action rifle shooters, F-Class competitors, and handloaders pursuing sub-MOA loads. Whether working up loads for a benchrest rifle or maintaining a precision bolt gun for tactical training, proper neck sizing through bushing-based systems is the foundation of repeatable, low-dispersion ammunition. Redding neck bushings are industry-standard components trusted by reloaders who understand that consistency in ammunition starts with dimensional control at every stage of the loading process.
