If you're chasing tighter groups and more consistent brass life, the Redding .269 Titanium Nitride Neck Sizing Bushing is one of those small parts that makes a real difference at the bench. It drops into any Redding bushing-style neck sizing die and lets you control exactly how much neck tension your brass sees, so you're sizing just enough to hold the bullet without overworking the case neck.
This one measures a nominal .269 inch and is built from heat-treated steel with a surface hardness of Rc 60-62, hand-polished to keep sizing effort low. The titanium nitride coating is the difference maker versus the plain steel version. That gold-colored TiN layer boosts the effective surface hardness even further and reduces friction, which means smoother strokes and cleaner case necks. With the neck lubed properly, the bushing glides through without marking up your brass.
Redding neck sizing bushings share the same outside dimensions, a 1/2-inch O.D. by 3/8-inch long body, so they freely interchange across the full Redding bushing die lineup, including Type S dies. They're also compatible with L.E. Wilson-style bushings. The .269 size falls right in the mix for 8mm and similar neck diameters, but what matters is matching the bushing to your specific loaded round rather than the caliber on the box.
To find your number, measure the outside neck diameter of a loaded cartridge with a precision micrometer, then subtract about .001 to .002 inch to account for brass springback and proper bullet tension. If you're running moly-coated bullets, you may want to go a touch smaller for the tension you're after. Dialing in the correct bushing is what separates handloads that chamber smooth and shoot tight from ammo that's just getting by, and this TiN-coated .269 gives you that control with less wear on your dies and your brass.
It freely interchanges across all Redding bushing-style neck sizing dies, including the Type S Full and Neck Sizing dies. It also works with L.E. Wilson-style bushings thanks to the shared 1/2-inch O.D. by 3/8-inch long dimensions. Just drop it in and you're ready to size.
Measure the outside neck diameter of a loaded cartridge with a precision micrometer, then subtract roughly .001 to .002 inch to allow for brass springback and bullet tension. That gives you your target bushing size. If you load moly-coated bullets, you may want to step down slightly for proper tension.
Both start as the same heat-treated steel with a hand-polished Rc 60-62 surface. The titanium nitride version adds a TiN coating that increases the effective surface hardness even more and reduces sizing friction. With a lubed neck, the TiN bushing sizes smoother and leaves cleaner brass necks.
Picking the correct bushing lets you set just the right amount of neck tension to hold the bullet without excessively working the brass. That consistency in neck tension translates to more uniform bullet release and better shot-to-shot results, while also extending the usable life of your brass.
