Neck sizing bushings are where precise handloading really starts to pay off, and this .311 Titanium Nitride piece from Redding is built for exactly that kind of work. Instead of over-working your brass with a standard full-length sizer, a bushing lets you set the neck down to one specific diameter so the bullet gets just the right grip. The .311 size (part number 76311) fits in nicely for a range of calibers once you've measured your own loaded rounds, and it carries Redding's familiar hand-polished finish right out of the package.
The Titanium Nitride surface treatment is the real story here. It gives the bushing the same solid heat-treated steel body as Redding's standard line, then adds a hardened TiN layer that bumps up the effective surface hardness and noticeably reduces sizing friction. With a lightly lubed case neck, the bushing slides through without leaving marks, which keeps your brass looking good and your sizing stroke smooth. That added hardness also means the bushing holds its dimension over a lot of reloading sessions.
This bushing measures 1/2 inch O.D. by 3/8 inch long, which is Redding's standard footprint. It drops into any Redding bushing-style neck sizing or full-length die, and it interchanges freely with L.E. Wilson style bushings as well as other brands that accept that pattern. Picking the right size is straightforward: measure the outside neck diameter of a loaded cartridge with a good micrometer, then subtract about .001 to .002 inch to account for brass spring back. That little subtraction is what gives you proper neck tension without squeezing the brass more than it needs.
Every bushing is clearly marked with its size so you can grab the right one off the bench without guessing, and like the rest of the Redding line, it's made in the USA. If you're chasing consistent concentricity and repeatable tension on your handloads, a dedicated bushing like this is one of the simplest upgrades you can make.
Measure the outside neck diameter of a loaded round with a good micrometer, then subtract about .001 to .002 inch to allow for brass spring back. That final number is your bushing size. The .311 works for your load if your measured loaded neck comes out around .312 to .313 inch.
Yes. It uses the standard 1/2 inch O.D. by 3/8 inch length footprint, so it drops into all Redding bushing-style sizing dies. It also interchanges freely with L.E. Wilson style bushings and other dies built to accept that pattern.
Both share the same heat-treated steel body and external dimensions, so they interchange in the same dies. The Titanium Nitride version adds a hardened TiN surface treatment that increases surface hardness and reduces sizing friction for a smoother stroke.
With the case neck lightly lubed, the Titanium Nitride coating lets the bushing pass over the brass without leaving marks. A quick pass with neck lube or dry graphite is all it takes to keep things clean.
