If you're running a Forster Bushing Bump Neck Sizing Die and want to fine-tune how much grip your case neck puts on the bullet, this 0.314" bushing is the piece that makes it happen. Forster builds their bushings in .001 inch increments so you can land on the exact inside diameter your brass and chamber call for, instead of settling for whatever a one-size die gives you. This one is honed to a true 0.314" interior and carries the BUSH-314 part number.
The whole point of a bushing setup is control. By swapping bushings, you decide the outside diameter the neck gets sized down to, which in turn sets your neck tension and bullet grip. A common starting point is choosing a bushing roughly .002 inch smaller than a loaded round measures at the neck, then adjusting from there based on how your rifle shoots. Brass that's been fired several times work-hardens, so it's handy to keep a couple of neighboring sizes on the bench for when your necks start behaving differently.
Every Forster bushing goes through a cryogenic treatment, a deep super-cooling process that refines and tightens the steel's surface. The result is an ultra-smooth interior that sizes necks cleanly, cuts down on runout, and holds up well over a lot of reloading cycles. Smoother sizing means straighter necks and more consistent bullet seating, which is exactly what you're chasing when you step up to a bushing die in the first place.
This is a Forster-only component. It's made specifically for the Forster Precision Plus Bushing Bump and bushing-style dies and will not swap into Redding or L.E. Wilson dies, so make sure you're feeding a Forster die before you order. It drops in chamfered side down and seats under the decapping assembly inside the die body. Dies and bushings are sold separately, so this listing is for the single 0.314" bushing on its own.
It's made for Forster's bushing-style dies, including the Precision Plus Bushing Bump Neck Sizing Dies. It is not interchangeable with Redding or L.E. Wilson bushings, so it only belongs in a Forster die. The die itself is sold separately from the bushing.
Measure the outside neck diameter of several loaded rounds, then subtract about .002 inch to find your bushing size. If you want a firmer press fit on the bullet, subtract .003 inch instead. Since bushings come in .001 inch steps, it's smart to keep a size above and below your main choice on hand.
The cryo process super-cools the steel to refine and close its surface, leaving an ultra-smooth interior. That smoother finish sizes necks cleaner, helps reduce runout, and extends the working life of the bushing. In short, it gives you straighter, more consistent necks over time.
No, this listing is for the single 0.314" bushing only. Forster sells dies and bushings separately, though some die kits ship with three commonly needed sizes. If you already run a Forster bushing die, this just drops right in.
