Redding .328 Titanium Nitride Neck Sizing Bushing (76328)

Description

This is the .328 diameter Titanium Nitride neck sizing bushing from Redding (part number 76328), the small but important piece that lets a handloader control neck tension instead of leaving it up to a one size fits all die. Rather than squeezing the neck way down and then dragging it back open over an expander ball, a bushing sizes the outside of the neck to the exact diameter you choose. That means less stress on your brass, better concentricity, and consistent bullet grip that pays off downrange.

The TiN version starts with the same heat treated, hand polished steel body as the standard bushings, then adds a titanium nitride surface treatment. That coating bumps up surface hardness and cuts sizing friction, so the stroke feels smoother and the bushing shrugs off wear over a long reloading career. Every bushing is clearly marked with its size for quick identification on the bench.

How the .328 TiN Bushing Fits Your Setup

This bushing shares the standard external dimensions of 1/2 inch outside diameter by 3/8 inch long, so it freely interchanges in all Redding bushing style neck sizing dies. It also drops into bushing style dies from other makers that accept the L.E. Wilson style bushing, which makes it a flexible addition if you run more than one brand of die.

Picking the Right .328 Redding Bushing Size

Sizing selection is simple once you know the trick. Measure the outside neck diameter of a loaded or dummy round with a good micrometer, then subtract .001 to .002 inches to account for brass spring back and set your bullet tension. If you run multiple brass brands or neck thicknesses, it is common to keep a couple of neighboring sizes on hand so you can fine tune grip for each load. Bushings like this run in .001 inch increments across the range, so there is a size for just about any precision rifle project you have going.
